Adoption and Special Guardianship Support Fund: Applications on Hold Pending Government Decision

Families awaiting funding from the Adoption and Special Guardianship Support Fund (ASGSF) should be aware that new applications for therapeutic support starting from April 1, 2025, are currently on hold.

The ASGSF is currently under a government spending review, no new applications for services starting from April 2025 onwards are being accepted at this time.

This means Adopt London cannot submit any new funding requests for therapeutic interventions scheduled to begin in the next financial year 2025-26. We understand that this may be concerning for families waiting to apply for support, and we will provide an update as soon as the Department for Education announces a decision.

We appreciate your patience and we will share further information as soon as it becomes available.
