Could you make the difference in a child's life?

In Renfrewshire, we believe all children should reach their potential. For some, this means joining new families who can give them the love, care and security their birth family are unable to provide.

You can offer a child the chance of a positive, brighter future.

We need all kinds of people for all types of children. So if you are tolerant, flexible and patient, and you're interested in finding out what's involved, these pages will give you more information.

Want to speak to us? Call the team on 0300 300 1199 or send us an email at childrenandfamilies@renfrewshire.gov.uk - we can talk you through the next steps in taking your interest forward. It'll be a friendly, informal discussion, so please do get in touch.
