On 1 February 2022, we announced that the Adoption Support Fund (ASF) will continue to offer invaluable support to eligible adoptive and special guardianship families up to March 2025. This will take us to the 10th consecutive year of funding for the ASF.

Further announcements on the scope, budget, and operation of the ASF from April 2022 will be made shortly.
