chairman's welcome message

Welcome to the Yorkshire Adoption Consortium website. The Yorkshire Adoption Consortium brings together 17 adoption agencies in the region and the aim is to increase the possibilities for matching children with families in the region for adoption.

By consistently sharing the details of approved adopters and children waiting for new adoptive families amongst our members, we avoid delays in matching children with families. This increased choice gives greater matching potential and more opportunities to keep children within the Yorkshire region. We need more adoptive families who can meet the needs of black, Asian and mixed heritage children and groups of brothers and sisters. We aim to recruit, approve and support adoptive families through out the region and are unique in that we provide specific Asian preparation Training in Asian Community Languages for adopters within the region.

The development of this website is just one of the ways in which we hope to meet these challenges.

Mandy Prout Yorkshire Consortium Chair
