HAVE YOU BEEN THINKING ABOUT ADOPTING?
Join us for our Adoption Information Evening on Wednesday, 16 November 2022 from 6pm to 8pm which is taking place during this year's Adoption Week Scotland. This will be an in-person event at our Edinburgh office at 7 John's Place in Leith.
Two of our very experienced social workers will tell you about the different stages of the adoption process and they will be able to answer all your questions.
We will also have one of our amazing adopters joining us at the event who will be able to tell you about their experiences of adopting a child and answer your questions.
Whatever stage you are at in your adoption journey, be it just starting to think about adoption or really sure that you want to adopt, join us to find out what it's like to adopt a child and how to take that next, important step.
Here's what some of our adopters have said about adopting through us:
“St Andrew’s Children’s Society make miracles happen every day, for the kids that need families, and the grown-ups that want to become parents.”
“The selfless support from this organisation is priceless, as is the dedication of its highly trained and intuitive staff.”
“St Andrew’s Children's Society use this really lovely term, it’s about forming forever families. It’s not about finding any old home for a child, it’s about finding the right home for them as well as fitting into the lives we are able to give them."
Please note that we welcome enquiries to adopt from all members of the community including single people, people from the LGBTQ+ community, people who follow a faith and people who do not follow a faith.
