Real Experiences

Elaine Murphy

"We adopted with St Andrews in 2014, after being recommended by word of mouth, back then we had a great experience from when we first contacted the agency, right through to court proceedings to finalise the adoption. Some 10 years later there is still post adoption support available and the offer of training/workshops covering all useful topics. All staff we have dealt with have been very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. We have always been happy to recommend this agency to others."

"Visited for training. Good size training room but tio many people on our visit even for that space. Temperature fluctuated between cold and really hot. Limited toilet facilities and those downstairs out of order. Coffee and biscuits available but had to go outside for lunch."
