There are children across the North West waiting for loving homes.
Agencies from across the North West are working together to find adoptive parents for children in our care.
Nobody Knows Me Better
Early permanence is a route to adoption that places children with families at the earliest possible stage.
If you’re interested in adoption then we encourage you to contact your local agency to find out more.
Why adopt?
There are many reasons why you should adopt with us and our agencies will be there to support you in your journey. Here are some of the statistics which highlight the number of children who are waiting for adoption across the North West.
*The statistics refer to children with either a local authority plan of adoption and/or placement order and have not yet been ‘placed for adoption’. They were last updated in March 2025.
