“Being a same-sex couple, we were treated the same way as any other prospective adopters. It was a thoroughly rewarding and life-changing experience. Within 18 months of beginning the process, we got married and had two children.”
A St Andrew’s Adoptive Parent
“My Peter has embraced family life with both hands, he is funny, smart, kind and adorable… He is now a resilient little boy who loves to snuggle up on the sofa for movie night. He was nearly 3 when he came home to me, he’s now 7, and l’ve had a wonderful 4 years with him.”
