Families for Children (FFC) is a registered (1093131) and approved voluntary adoption agency and Charitable Trust. We operate across Devon, Dorset and Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. The main focus of our work is to find parents for children needing new adoptive families.
Adoption is a way of providing the security of a new family when it is not possible for a child to be brought up by his/her own parent(s). There are several thousand children in local authority care who are waiting for an adoptive family.
Families for Children is committed to providing adoption support to children and families. This support is available when, and for as long as, it is needed. This work is the main focus of our fundraising activities.
Families for Children is delighted to have the support of three well-known local celebrities, Michael Caines MBE (Patron), Judi Spiers and Mark Tyler (Vice Patrons).

“Families for Children is a charity close to my heart, as I am myself adopted and benefited from growing up in a loving family. Adoption does work and gives a huge amount of benefit and joy to the adoptee and parents alike.” Michael Caines MBE
“I’m very proud to tell everyone that I’m adopted. I was adopted as an only child into a family who lived in Topsham Road, Exeter and grew up with loving parents who loved the city, as I do now. I have traced my birth parents and that experience turned out well. I have nothing but praise for the adoption system and I’m proud to support Families for Children.” Mark Tyler
