When you think about your future family, what does it look like? Is there more than one child?
Very often we talk to adopters who every intention of having at least two children, but they opt to do this by adopting one child and then later down the line apply to adopt again - which is fantastic.
However, we have brothers and sisters that need to stay together now. If you are interested in adopting siblings, please do get in touch.

#YouCanAdopt
If you’re considering adopting a child, have you considered adopting brother and sisters? To be approved as an adopter
typically takes about between 6-8 months and if you are adopting more than one child in a family group together you would only need to go through this process once.
We are here to answer your questions, why not get in touch?
The new #YOUCANADOPT campaign
aims to encourage potential adopters and
approved adopters to consider adopting
brothers and sisters and highlight the
benefits of adopting the children together.

I've been talking to lots of adopters recently, looking at what motivated them to adopt siblings and this quote really stuck with me today.
"The experience of adopting is as unique as the children we adopt."
"Sisters and brothers are the truest, purest forms of love, family and friendship, knowing when to hold you and when to challenge you, but always being a part of you.”
Today is sibling day and we want to celebrate by sharing the stories of those that have adopted siblings, find out more by visiting http://ow.ly/E1NK50EeiAH
