Same sex adoption is rapidly growing in England as the number of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender couples look to start a family.

One in five adoptions in the UK are now by same sex couples and this is continually rising.

At Yorkshire Adoption Agency, we proudly stand with trans and non-binary communities.  Everyone deserves love, respect, and the opportunity to build a family.

Our services are inclusive, affirming, and open to all—because identity should never be a barrier to adoption.

We are proud to be registered and working in partnership with New Family Social! This wonderful charity, led by LGBTQ+ adopters and foster carers, help you decide if fostering or adoption is right for you and support you on your journey to becoming parents or carers.

As YAA are professional members, all our adopters from the LGBTQ+ community have FREE Gold membership to New Family Social’s resources and support.
