Big Adoption Day 2025

Time: 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM
Location: Chapter Arts Centre, Cardiff

Join St. David’s Children’s Society for Big Adoption Day 2025, a nationwide campaign highlighting the urgent need for adoptive families. This special event is part of a collaboration led by Coram and the Consortium of Voluntary Adoption Agencies (CVAA) to raise awareness about adoption and celebrate the families who have embraced this transformative journey.

What to Expect:

  • Meet the Experts: Speak with our dedicated team to learn about the adoption process and how VAAs like St. David’s provide unparalleled support.
  • Real-Life Stories: Hear inspiring experiences from adoptive families and discover how adoption changes lives—for children and parents alike.
  • Find Out More: Learn how adoption through a VAA offers a bespoke, supportive service and why 96% of VAAs are rated highly by national inspectorates.

With lots of children across Wales still waiting for loving families, Big Adoption Day is your opportunity to learn how you could make a life-changing difference. Whether you’re exploring adoption for the first time or taking the next step in your journey, we’re here to guide you. Our Vision is that every child with an adoption plan in Wales is found a loving family and supported to be the best they can be.
