Choosing to adopt is not a decision that is taken likely. We get that. It’s a life changing decision that can often lead to making big changes in your own lifestyle before you take on the responsibility of a child or children. That could be choosing to become a little healthier, gaining more experience in child care or even moving house.

And for our guest in this episode that is just what happened to her. Hannah started her adoption story back during the very start of Covid and as a single adopter she realised how important her wider support network will be so with this she decided that, during one of the biggest life decisions you can make, that she would do another one at the same time move house!

Aswell as the house move, we find out about how she came to the decision to adopt and we also discuss representation of single adopters and adoption in general in the wider media.

If hearing Hannah’s story has got you thinking about starting your adoption story why not book onto one of our upcoming Online Information Events. We run them twice monthly and they are 100% live over TEAMS. We talk through the adoption process, then we have an adopter guest speaker join us who tells their adoption story and we wrap up the event by have a Q&A where you can ask any questions that you may have.
