Adoption Matters

Children are at the heart of everything we do


Adoption Matters is a children’s charity and one of the largest voluntary adoption agencies in the UK. Adoption Matters is committed to providing life-long post-adoption support for all of our adoptive families. We also offer a support service for adopted adults and birth families, and a Therapy Service through our dedicated Centre for Fostering and Adoption Support.

Adoption Matters vision is a world where all children grow up with the security and benefit of a safe and loving family home enabling them to reach their full potential. Children are at the heart of everything we do and we seek to have a transformative impact on young lives; building trusting relationships and providing responsive, high-quality services underpinned by therapeutic support as standard.

In 2024, we launched a not-for-profit fostering agency, Foster Care Matters. The charity is committed to re-investing back into the fostering service to offer high-quality support and ongoing training to foster parents. www.fostercarematters.org.uk
