Adoption Focus at Birmingham Pride 2025

Last Saturday, a team from Adoption Focus was privileged to take part in the Birmingham Pride Parade, a key part of the wider Birmingham Pride weekend. Starting in Centenary Square, taking in the whole of the city centre, and finishing in the LGBTQ+ Village, thousands of people took part in the parade, to march for equality and justice for LGBTQ+ people around the world. They were joined by thousands of spectators lining the streets and joining in this important celebration of diversity and LGBTQ+ life.

The Adoption Focus delegation was made up of members of our staff team, adopters, and their families [JL1] . Walking with a banner featuring our specially commissioned LGBTQ+ logo, the Adoption Focus party gave out hundreds of stickers to spectators while dancing and enjoying the festive atmosphere.

“It was an absolute pleasure and privilege to take part Birmingham Pride 2025. We had such a fantastic time. It’s also important for us as an agency to show our support and gratitude to the LGBTQ+ community and our LGBTQ+ adopters in particular, who provide so many loving homes for the children we place. As an agency, we recognise and appreciate the challenges that LGBTQ+ people face and the emotional resilience and determination it takes to overcome them. These are attributes that we look for in all our adopters.”


Later in the summer, Adoption Focus will be taking place in Nottingham Pride. We hope to see lots of members of our adoption community in the East Midlands at this event.
