Adoption agency releases impact report to mark 16th anniversary
This month, Birmingham-based adoption agency Adoption Focus is celebrating 16 years since its formation.
To mark this occasion, they have produced a report summarising what they have achieved since their inception as an adoption agency
The report illustrates their history of recruiting, assessing, training and approving adopters to provide loving, stable homes for children who need them.
Since 2009 they have:
- Placed more than 750 children
- Helped create more than 550 families
- Provided adoption support for our families nearly 600 times
- Been rated 'Outstanding' by Ofsted on each of the five occasions they've been inspected
On the impact report, Adoption Focus CEO Anna Sharkey said: "We're extremely proud of everything we've achieved as an agency over the last 16 years. Our service has grown to support ever increasing numbers of adopters and their families throughout the process.
“This has only been possible thanks to the commitment of our board of trustees, our dedicated staff team, expert panel members, legal and medical advisors and our many volunteers.
“Behind the numbers in this report are life changing stories for hundreds of families. Our vision is that every child who needs a new family is provided with a permanent secure home with loving adopters who will parent them with care and understanding. This is what we strive for every day in partnership with our adopters."
