About

We are the regional adoption agency for Derby, Derbyshire, Nottingham and Nottinghamshire local authorities. We aim to find loving homes for children who are unable to live with their birth families. Working together, we can find the best matches for children across the region.

Adoption East Midlands is here to support you throughout your adoption journey. 

About the website

The website is maintained by the council's fostering and adoption services and is designed as a virtual learning environment, with information, learning materials and videos relating to any individual topic.

The whole website is currently still in development and it is hoped that future improvements, such as a log-in, password-protected area and online forms, will be added in due course. 

• Please provide your feedback to help shape these future developments
