Our mission is to find permanent, loving families for children waiting for adoption, but our work doesn’t stop there. We understand that as well as great joy, adoption brings challenges, so we provide ongoing, specialist support for our families.

We need to raise around £200,000 per year to fund this work. Please help us to be there for adoptive families, for as long as they need us so that every adoption has the best chance of success.

Friends of CCS

A group of like-minded parents, family members & friends, with the aim of raising funds for CCS and The Centre through the organisation of fundraising events and activities.

Fundraising Events

Donate

Individual donations are hugely appreciated. Regular donations are particularly welcome, but whether you give monthly, quarterly, once a year, or just once - your help really does make a difference. Donate securely and easily online (or by post) and if you can, please use Gift Aid to boost your donation.

Remember Us

Leaving a legacy, or gift in your Will costs nothing now, but will help future generations of adopted children and their families to get the support they need. Or, celebrate the life of someone you love through a donation In Memory to CCS and create a lasting impact for adoptive families.

Fundraise For Us

Fundraising for CCS in Bristol is a great way to stay active or bring people together in support of a cause you care about. Take up a sporting challenge, involve your friends, neighbours, school or church community, or give as you shop or sell to help fund our work with adoptive families.
