Buckinghamshire Council are inviting you to find out more about adoption through a series of new webinars.

At any one time dozens of children in Buckinghamshire are looking to be adopted. This includes older children, brothers and sisters and children with additional needs.

The monthly events are open to all and are designed to give people the opportunity to find out more about how the process works and to get answers to any questions they may have.

Anita Cranmer, Cabinet Member for Children’s Services explained:

“Since the pandemic we’ve had to rethink the way we communicate with prospective adopters. Whilst we no longer need to place restrictions on face-to-face meetings due to Covid, we have found that these free, online sessions work equally as well as in person meetings as people can tune in easily from home but still get access to all the information they need and be able to speak to our team and sometimes some of our previous adopters.”

“I would urge anyone who is thinking about adopting or those who simply want to find out more about how it all works, to get in touch with us. You can book onto our next webinar, or alternatively give us a call or send an email. We have lots of information and advice and our experienced team can answer all your questions."

Webinars are running on the following dates and you can book a place here.
