The team at Adoption Focus is committed to providing a friendly, caring and professional adoption process. We are a registered Adoption Agency, and we deliver a comprehensive range of services, before adoption and after adoption, to children and families. We’re experienced adoption specialists who’ll walk you through the process from start to finish – and beyond.
Our social workers are experienced and dedicated adoption specialists. We are experts in supporting people who want to adopt, and children who need them to be their new parents.
Our highly qualified management team has many years of experience in all aspects of adoption social work in both local authority and voluntary sectors and our adoption support social workers and social work assistants help us to provide the high quality range of direct work, training, social events, groups, peer support, advice and information to everyone who applies to adopt with us.
The work of Adoption Focus is underpinned by our business development and administration teams, who help us to run a friendly, professional and efficient organisation.
We respond to everyone who is interested in becoming an adoptive parent. We will be welcoming, respond quickly and provide clear information. Everyone who enquires or applies with us will be treated fairly, openly and with respect throughout the adoption process. We aim to offer the highest service standards for as long as needed.

Working with the Agency has been amazing and insightful; all staff have been friendly and helpful. Staff have been very responsive in respect of any queries we had. Everyone has been open, which has helped us form connections and it almost feels like being part of a family. Our experience has been positive throughout, and the admin team have also been very helpful.
Our Vision
Our vision is to provide every child who needs a new family, with adopters who want to parent them with care, love and understanding.
At Adoption Focus, we:

- Believe that children who cannot stay with their birth family, well-informed and properly supported adoptive families provide the best opportunity for them to have the childhood they need
- Believe that every person who wants to adopt should be provided with a highly professional, knowledgeable and expert service
- Believe adopters make the difference to children's lives and should be properly acknowledged for this
- Believe that our adoptive families should enjoy family life - we will do all we can to support them in their parenting for as long as they need us, as their children grow into adulthood
- Value loving, nurturing family life which keeps children safe from harm
- Place the welfare of children at the heart of our service provision
- Are committed to the professionalism and development of our staff, enabling our team to achieve the best they can for the children and adopters we support
- Seek to empower everyone to whom we provide a service, working in collaboration, in an open and honest manner, to help them achieve their full potential
This is reflected in the work that we do and is why we are rated by Ofsted as an ‘Outstanding’ adoption agency.
