Adoption Services

Welcome to TACT Adoption

We hope you find the information you are looking for on these pages. Do please ring us for more info if you wish, we hope you will come to one of our coffee and cake mornings to meet some of our adopters and staff. We look forward to hearing from you. 

What is adoption?

Adoption is a legal way of providing a new permanent family for children who cannot live with their birth family. An adoption order gives adoptive parent(s) parental rights and responsibilities and removes parental responsibility from the birth parent(s).

Who are we?

TACT Fostering & Adoption is a registered adoption charity and a voluntary adoption agency (VAA) with many years of experience of finding homes for vulnerable children. Adoption can be very rewarding for families who are keen to become parents. Our aim is to offer you a service that helps you consider adoption as a positive way of parenting.

What we offer...

TACT Adoption can offer ongoing training, counselling, meeting groups, regular communications, regular activity events, mediation services, support to prevent the disruption of an adoption, therapeutic services and respite care.

Who do we look for?

TACT Adoption are currently only located in South East London so, at this time, are only able to process adoption enquiries from families living inside the M25 or no more than an hour’s travelling from South East London.
