About us

Parents And Children Together (PACT) has been building and strengthening families since 1911.

PACT is an adoption and trauma recovery charity which helps hundreds of people every year through outstanding adoption services and specialist support across central and southern England and inspirational community projects across the Thames Valley.

As one of the UK’s leading independent adoption charities, PACT places children with secure and loving families and supports them with specialist therapeutic support. They fundraise to provide enhanced adoption support services to their adoptive families including their online support platform CATCH, their Adopter Champions team of experienced adoptive parents, their Strengthening Families team of therapeutically-trained social workers, their award-winning FACTS therapeutic support service and their specialist education support service.

PACT also runs women's community project Alana House in Berkshire and Bounce Back 4 Kids domestic abuse recovery programme.

Their vision is to deliver high quality services to empower children, women and families to rebuild after trauma and embrace a positive future.
