Profiles of adopters
Our adopters come from all walks of life. They have shared their stories with us in the hope that it both inspires and informs others about the adoption process and the support provided by Adoption Counts.
We have anonymised some or all of their personal details, but their stories are real and told in their own words.
Nicola and Iain
Nicola and her husband Iain knew they would never be able to conceive naturally. After multiple, unsuccessful IVF attempts, they turned to adoption.
Sarah and Paul
Sarah and her husband, Paul, were in their late-40s when they decided to start the adoption process.
