A child in your life

A child in your life

In 2022 the number of children looked after by local authorities in England rose to 82,170 (up 2% since 2021). Some of these children need short or longer term foster care while others need to be cared for permanently by relatives or an adoptive family. All need a safe and loving home.

Be My Family is here to help find the right home for these children. As well as running Adoption Activity Days and Exchange Days we provide information on Fostering, Adoption and other care plans.
