WWiSH – the shared adoption service for Warrington, Wigan and St Helens, will be exhibiting at the National Gay Wedding Show, at the Echo Arena, Liverpool, tomorrow (Sunday).
About 200 exhibitors from across the UK, providing a wealth of services and products for couples preparing to tie the knot, will be taking part.
The show sets out to be the most informative and accessible of its kind, providing advice, support and ideas, whilst promoting equality and acceptance within the wedding industry.
WWiSH aims to promote its already successful service to the LGBT community, actively encouraging adoption enquiries from people from all walks of life, with past experience showing just how successful same-sex adoptions can be.
WWiSH has a wealth of experience of lesbian, gay and transgender adoptions and are anxious to help people from the LGBT and wider, more diverse communities to fulfil their dreams of becoming parents.
Ruth Fitzgerald, WWiSH adoption manager said: “Choosing to adopt is an incredibly rewarding, life changing decision, one that we know many attendees at the show will have considered to some extent.
“We have approved many LGBT adopters and aspire to making the dreams of many more come true, providing more forever families for the children in our care. We look forward to meeting couples and singles who may be considering adopting, and urge them to come and speak to our friendly and experienced team, who can offer them advice and information on all aspects of adoption.”
