Why Adopt with CCS?

When you are exploring adoption, you will discover that you have a choice about which agency you can use depending on where you live in the UK. Either your regional adoption agency or a voluntary adoption agency like ours here at CCS. Read more about the differences here.

We work with most families who live in these areas: Bristol, South Gloucestershire, Gloucestershire, Somerset, Bath and North East Somerset, North Somerset, Swindon, Wiltshire and South Wales.

We encourage you to explore and find the agency that suits you the best. But here’s why we think you should consider us.

Several members of our advice team have adopted themselves, so have been where you are now and know how it feels. You can talk to them to explore your questions about the process and work out if adopting might be for you.
