Does NEPAS organise adoption placements?
No. If you are thinking about becoming an adoptive parent we would suggest that you contact your Local Authority Social Service Department who will have an Adoption and Fostering Team. If you live in North Tyneside the telephone number is (0191) 20006161, if you live in Northumberland telephone (01670) 534450 and ask to speak to the family placement duty officer. Outside of these areas we suggest you telephone the British Agency for Adoption and Fostering (BAAF) on their helpline (0780) 2410663.
