The National Assembly for Wales Children and Young People Committee has been reviewing the progress made since its 2012 inquiry into adoption services. We welcome the publication of Follow-up Inquiry into Adoption Services in Wales report; it reflects our priorities.
In the coming weeks many regional adoption services, councils and voluntary adoption agencies across Wales will be hosting information & support events in their local areas. These will provide an opportunity for prospective adopters to gather information and advice in a relaxed and informal setting from people with first hand experience of the process.
"These events will be an opportunity to have a great day out with your family, meet other adoptive families, and also have the chance to meet with Suzanne Griffiths and Phil Hodgson of the National Adoption Service"
