St Andrew’s Children’s Society
St Andrew’s Children’s Society is the oldest Scottish adoption agency still operating.
We welcome adoption and fostering enquiries from all members of the community including single people, those who follow a faith and those who don’t and members of the LGBTQ+ community. Everyone is treated the same.
If you adopt or foster through us we will help you find the right child for you and prepare you for the child being placed with you. We are a voluntary agency and therefore not tied to any one particular area in the UK when we search for a child for you.
We offer our families lifelong support once the child is placed with you and regularly run events to help our parents such as Theraplay and Coffee Mornings. We also support our families on a 1-2-1 basis. We are currently the only agency in Scotland offering SafeBase Parenting Training to adopters and foster carers.
We have an office in Edinburgh and one in Aberdeen and we help people to adopt and foster across the Central Belt and the North East of Scotland.
If you would like to speak to someone about adopting or fostering please call 0131 454 3370 / 01224 878158 or email info@standrews-children.org.uk. We can answer any questions you have.
