Adoption East Midlands

Derby, Nottingham, Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire local authorities are working in partnership to ensure better outcomes for children waiting for adoption. Together we are Adoption East Midlands.

We are a modern, forward thinking, and inclusive adoption agency who welcome applications from people from a diverse range of backgrounds.

We are committed to ensuring equity and diversity, upholding anti-racist values, and providing services fairly.

There is an expectation that the families we work with also support this and can demonstrate their commitment to celebrating difference during the adoption process.

You don’t have to be a parenting expert to adopt. If you can provide a loving, permanent and secure home for a child, we want to hear from you.
