National Adoption Week runs from the 21st - 27th October 2024. Rob Charles spoke to Kate from Caritas Care about adoption. Hear the interview here.

• There’s been a 22% increase in the number of children with a plan for adoption not yet matched with an adoptive family since last year
• There are now more children yet to be placed with a family, than there are approved adopters waiting to be matched with a child
• With fewer potential adopters coming forward, children of all ages are facing delays of over 18 months to find their forever home
• For parents, the journey to adoption may be smoother than is often believed. One in four adoptive families were approved within six months of registration, while 18 per cent of approved adoptive families had a child matched with them within three months

Feel like you need a question or questions about adoption then please don't hesitate to get in touch with Kate & her team at Caritas Care.
