Adoption

Just starting the 'journey'

We first thought about adoption about a year ago, and got as far as meeting SW etc. Then, we took a break from the idea. Turns out TTC/IVF not going to work (due to age). We have a DD(10), and really want another child.

So, a week ago we bit the bullet and sent in the Registration of Interest form.

By turns we are excited, nervous and a bit terrified. - and it hasn't even really begun yet!

Hi topcat. We are at pretty much the same stage - we have had our initial home visit with social worker and about to make an official application, so still very early doors for us.

Nervous but hopeful! Wishing you luck.

Good luck! I’m coming to the end of stage 2 and have panel booked for December. If you have any questions about the assessment feel free to message me :)
