Inter-country adoption applies to any child adopted from
outside of the UK.
Adoption permanently transfers the legal responsibility of
care to the adoptive parents providing a child with a new, secure
and permanent family to grow up in.
The children up for inter-country adoption come from a variety
of backgrounds prior to placement.
For instance, many live in children's homes or orphanages or are
in foster care and there may be little information about their
early life or upbringing.
The children may have emotional, behavioural, developmental and
medical problems while some may have physical or learning
disabilities.
If you are interested in taking on one of these children please
contact our
Adoption and Fostering Team or fill in our
Adoption interest form.
