It's been quite a year so far, with the pandemic and the huge impacts to social life, jobs and working patterns.  It can feel that now may not be the right time to consider adoption or fostering. 

We say that if you are considering about fostering and adopting then pick up the phone and talk to us or an agency or post your thoughts on our forum.

There are children out there, waiting for a family to offer them love, comfort, stability and laughs. The pandemic hasn't changed this and agencies are seeking families who want to start the approval process.

All of our agencies want LGBT+ singles and couples to come forward for consideration.  Our member agencies recognise the resilience and strength that LGBT+ people have and it is generally recognised by professionals in adoption and fostering that LGBT+ people are an important part in providing great homes for children.

At NFS, we support a diverse range of orientations and identities. We want to help you. To help you decide whether adoption or fostering is right for you. To help you through your approval process to legally foster or adopt children. To supporting you in your life once you have your children.

Join or pick up the phone and see if it's the right time for you.
