Contact the Helpline

Sometimes being able to talk to someone makes all the difference. Our helpline advisers offer practical suggestions, information and encouragement, or can point you in the right direction for specialist help. Wherever you are in the process, whatever difficulties you are having, make our helpline your first port of call.

Adoption UK has four dedicated Helplines to support adopters and prospective adopters wherever you are in the UK. 

You can email the helpline using the form below or by ringing us on:

Then you'll be asked to chose which line you'd like to speak to.
