Volunteer

We are always looking for volunteers - both adopters and young people - to help us deliver events, training and fundraising.

We appreciate that giving up your time to support Adoption Focus is a lot to ask but we hope you gain a great deal of experience and satisfaction in return, playing a key role in shaping our organisation and vision.

Our commitment – we will do all we can to make sure that anyone who gives their time to us feels valued, understood and proud to be part of Adoption Focus.

There are a number of ways you can invest your time to benefit our adoptive families:

  • Become an Adoption Focus buddy – as an Adoption Focus adopter you could provide peer to peer support to another family starting out on their adoption journey
  • Fundraise on our behalf – organising a bake sale, entering a sponsored event or hosting a social gathering are all effective and enjoyable ways to raise money to help our adoptive community
  • Share your adoption stories through our newsletters and website to help us recruit more amazing adopters
  • Let us know about any skills and networks that could help us grow and develop our agency

Contact us to find out more about current opportunities.
