Together for Children

Adoption Service need loving homes for babies and young children now.

Dedicated to finding homes for the babies and children in their care, Adopt Coast to Coast, the regional adoption agency for Durham and Sunderland local authorities, is calling for more people to explore adoption as a way to start or grow their families.

The service is urgently seeking adopters for babies and young children, brothers and sisters and children with learning difficulties, health complications, or disabilities. If you can provide a home for one or more children, why not enquire today. You could be approved as an adopter and matched with one or more children within 6-12 months.

You can find everything you need to know about the adoption process and the training and support available by visiting the Adopt Coast to Coast website.
