In some areas of the UK, children outnumber adopters by three to one. This year in adoption week councils are trying to raise awareness of adoption, focussing on raising the numbers of adoptive parents by dispelling some of the myths that surround adoption, such as age, marital status, gender, sexuality, disability or employment status being a barrier. Two people who were adopted as babies share their own experiences and their different approaches to their birth parents.
