I was delighted to host the official launch of Adoption UK’s new report, Adoption Barometer, in Parliament.

Politicians, adoptive parents and a range of professionals gathered to discuss Adoption UK’s report on modern-day adoption. It looks at the Government’s performance on support for adoptive families, education for adopted children, and provides insight into all stages of the adoption journey.

St Helens borough has significantly more ‘looked after children’ than the North West and England as a whole.

Adoption can be a rewarding and life-changing experience for all involved, and this excellent report from Adoption UK is a great resource for all those considering adopting.
