100 years of adoption

CCS Adoption, your local independent, voluntary adoption agency in Bristol, is running an online Adoption Information Event for people thinking of adopting. Book yourself a place, and you can explore adoption, the children who need adoptive families and CCS Adoption – the region’s only Ofsted “Outstanding” adoption agency.

There will be a short presentation via Teams with our expert adoption team, who will be able to answer any questions you might have and tell you more about the lifelong support and training we provide. You’ll find out what the next steps are if you decide to adopt a child or siblings.

You’ll also have the opportunity to learn about the support we provide after adoption through our Adoption Support.

We will be holding this Information Event via Teams, so if you want to book yourself a place, please use the booking form below. We work with families living in the West and South West areas of England in Bristol, South Gloucestershire, Gloucestershire, Somerset, Bath and North East Somerset, North Somerset, Swindon and Wiltshire.

Find out everything you need to know about how to adopt with Family Adoption Links at our You Can Adopt Information Event.

Whether you're exploring your options or if you have decided that adoption is definitely for you, we look forward to seeing you and explaining everything you need to know about adoption.

Our friendly Social Workers will cover...

• The qualities you'll need to be an adoptive parent
• The amazing children that are currently awaiting adoption
• How you can prepare yourself to become an adopter
• How to apply and the timescales involved
• The support you can expect during the application process and once you've adopted
• The support you can expect

Plus we'll be inviting one of our adopters to give you a unique insight into the experience of applying to adopt and welcoming your child.

Plus there'll be lots of time to ask all of those questions that are on your list.

Our online information events are a great way to learn more about adopting, the adoption process and how Adoption Focus can support you.
They're ideal if:
• you're in the early stages of researching adoption
• you want a general overview of how the adoption process works
• you've been looking into adoption for a while and feel ready to start the process with Adoption Focus, an Ofsted 'Outstanding' rated agency
• you're contacting local agencies to decide which one to proceed with
• you want to find out more about the children who are waiting to be adopted
• you have specific questions you'd like to talk through privately with an expert
• you're interested in an early permanence route into adoption

They begin with a live presentation from a member of our team, covering all aspects of adoption and our service. Following this you'll be given the opportunity to arrange a private phone call or video chat with one of our experienced adoption social workers in which you can have your questions answered and talk about next steps.
Whether you want a general overview of how things work or have specific questions you'd like to talk through, we'll be happy to hear from you.
