A heartfelt welcome to Barnardo’s Scotland Adoption Service!


We are absolutely chuffed to bits to welcome Barnardo’s Scotland Adoption Service to the Children And Trauma Community Hub (CATCH)!

Barnardo’s Scotland Adoption Service’s long-standing dedication to finding loving and permanent families for children across Scotland is truly commendable. They understand that adopting is a real team effort. For those in Scotland considering adoption, they’d be delighted to have a chat with you. You can count on their dedicated community of parents and staff to be right there beside you, every step of the way. What’s more, their support continues long after you welcome a child into your home.

To help you connect and learn, they run regular events for those curious about adoption and for those who have already adopted. You can discover more about their upcoming events over on Eventbrite. You can also keep in touch and join their community on Facebook or simply reach out to them using the details below.

They’d be pleased to talk to you about how you could change a childhood, and a life.

Barnardo’s Scotland Adoption Service’s values are firmly aligned with the principles of The Promise, Scotland’s commitment to children and young people who experience being looked after by their local authority, ensuring they grow up loved, safe, and respected. They believe, as we do at CATCH, that all children and young people deserve to feel this way and to reach their full potential.

As Ray Vernon, Digital Partnership Executive at Parents And Children Together, who created and manage CATCH, noted: “Welcoming Barnardo’s Scotland Adoption Service feels like a natural fit. Their commitment to providing lifelong support to adoptive families aligns perfectly with our vision for CATCH. We recognise their profound impact on the lives of children and families in Scotland and are thrilled to have them join our community.”
