Adoption
Our adopters come from all backgrounds and cultures and
have adopted children from all over the UK. Our social
workers are able to support suitable applicants every step of the
way, and 95 per cent of domestic adopters approved by
the Royal Borough since 2007 have been linked or matched
with a child within a year of approval. Adoption has also
become less complex than it used to be.
One adopter said:
"I would like to take this opportunity to let your
team know how much I have appreciated the support we have received
this past 11 years. Your expertise, professionalism and commitment
to the Adoption process really are second to none. We have
been lucky." Jenny – May 2011
You can speak to an adoption social worker on Monday to Friday
morning between 9:30am and 5pm on freephone 0800 781 2332 or leave
a message and we will call you back the next working day.
The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, The London
Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham and Westminster City Council
joined their adoption services in April 2012 to provide a dedicated
service for adoption across the three west London local
authorities.
