Adoption Finder Intermediary Service

30/05/2026

For those who don’t know me, here’s a little about who I am and the work I do.

I’m a qualified social worker. I’ve worked in domestic abuse and children’s services, and now I support adults through some of the most significant moments of their lives tracing, accessing records, and reconnecting with family.

I founded Adoption Finder Intermediary Service to support people with their journey.

I also founded No Shame Foundation a charity providing free therapy for adults affected by adoption, fostering and early life trauma in Wales. Because everyone deserves access to support, regardless of their background or their bank balance.

If you’re thinking about tracing, contact, or just want to understand your options, you’re in the right place.

Get in touch 😊

I was reflecting this week on how many people are carrying difficult things quietly.

The longer I’ve worked with people, the more I’ve realised how important it is for people to feel listened to, understood, and supported without judgement.

I think sometimes people don’t need someone to ‘fix’ everything for them.

They just need someone willing to truly listen 🤍

Do you think people feel truly listened to enough these days?

A look behind the scenes of what I support people with in my work.

From accessing adoption records to searching for birth family, making contact, and finding the right support, every journey is different.

I’m really grateful to be able to support people through such important moments 🤍

It’s not just about finding someone.

It’s about understanding where you come from.

For many adoptees and birth relatives, that means making sense of identity, history, and unanswered questions.

Contact isn’t a moment, it’s a journey.

As a social worker, my role is to guide and support that process, helping you explore your options and approach contact safely and thoughtfully.

You don’t have to navigate it alone.

💌 Save or share if this resonates.

Mother’s Day isn’t the same for everyone.

For some it’s joyful. For others it holds grief, loss, questions, or complicated feelings.

However today feels for you, sending kindness and love 🤍
