Adoption Matters
Individual and Family Services
Children's charity and 'Outstanding' adoption agency covering North of England, Yorkshire, Stoke, Staffs & Shropshire.
About us
Adoption Matters is a children’s charity and one of the largest Voluntary Adoption Agencies (VAAs) in the UK. We recruit, train and support individuals and families as adopters and offer them ongoing support and training for as long as they need it. In 2024, we are growing the Adoption Matters family to launch Foster Care Matters, a not-for-profit fostering agency covering the North West. Ofsted Outstanding since 2008, we are the ONLY adoption service in the UK to achieve FIVE Ofsted Outstanding ratings in a row. We are an independent organisation and our priority is to find stable, loving homes for children through adoption and Early Permanence. In early 2024, we are launching a new not-for-profit fostering agency, Foster Care Matters.

Tap the link below for some heart-warming content from #TheSecretLifeOfBrothersAndSisters 🥰 ➡️ https://buff.ly/4fJz5ms There is a huge need for adopters for brothers and sisters - typically, a sibling group often waits longer to find their forever family 🧡 The bonds that we have with our #siblings often outlast all of the other relationships in our lives. It is so important that they are able to grow up together whenever possible. If you would like more information about adopting #brothers and #sisters, then please get in touch👉: https://buff.ly/2C6wraq - #YouCanAdopt #BrothersAndSisters #Adoption #LoveMakesAFamily

Hi - Annie here, the Fundraising & Relationship Manager at Adoption Matters and Foster Care Matters 👋 The #charity places have now become available for us to purchase for various running events in 2025. Are you, or do you know anybody, who might be interested in running and raising money for our wonderful #ChildrensCharity? Anyone who asks us to reserve a place for them will receive £10 discount from their reservation fee. The events are the #Manchester Half Marathon or Manchester 10k, or the #GreatNorthRun or #GreatNorth 10k. We would also be able to consider places in the same events in #Birmingham if anyone in that surrounding area would be interested ❤️ 📱We need to reserve our places this week, as the deadline is fast approaching, so time is of the essence - so if you fancy a challenge and raising funds for two wonderful and very important causes, please do reach out to Annie at fundraising@adoptionmatters.org. - #Fundraising #Running #Adoption #Fostering #MakeADifference #Fundraise #SupportACharity
