Gay and lesbian adoption 5th May 2009
A new guide

Ever since the change in law in 2005 allowing same–sex couples to jointly adopt children, an increasing number of gay men and lesbian couples have decided to go through the process. For the first time a book specifically for lesbians and gay men wishing to adopt a child is being published to provide help and advice. Jane is joined by Nicola Hill, the author of The Pink Guide to Adoption; Jeffrey Coleman from the British Association for Adoption & Fostering; and a couple who have recently adopted.

'The Pink Guide to Adoption for lesbians and gay men', by Nicola Hill, is published by the British Association for Adoption & Fostering, ISBN is 978-1905-664-68-9
