This government fully recognises the importance of support for adoptive and kinship children and families. The Adoption and Special Guardianship Support Fund (ASGSF) has been a valuable part of the support landscape for ten years. This is why we have provided £50 million of funding for the ASGSF for 2025/26, alongside £8.8 million for Adoption England, to complement the range of support available in local areas.
