Adoption

Adopting in Slough

If you want to transform a child’s life through adoption, we are here to help.

Slough Children First is part of a regional adoption agency called Coram Ambitious for Adoption. We aim to make the process of being approved as an adoptive parent as smooth as possible.

Start your adoption journey

If you are thinking about adoption, start by visiting Coram’s dedicated website where you’ll find lots of information about all aspects of adopting a child, including videos and interviews with adopters.

There are details of our latest adoption events which are a great way to find out more about the process and you can find out how our friendly team can help you start your adoption journey.

Please visit the Coram Ambitious for Adoption website to learn more, or, if you have particular questions relating to your own circumstances, please email us at adoption@coram.org.uk or call 020 7520 0383.

Support for adoptive families

Support is available for all adoptive families who live in or who have adopted through Slough Borough Council or Slough Children First. Support is also available for families who live outside of Slough but who have adopted a child through the Council in the last three years. Contact adopt@sloughchildrenfirst.co.uk or call 01753 787628 (Monday-Friday, 1-4pm) for more information.
