Kris and Ryan tell us about their experiences of same sex adoption. In recent years in England, around 1 in 5 adoptions were to same-sex couples — about 20% of all adoptions in 2023/24. NOTE: The UK government data typically reports family composition (e.g., “same-gender couple”) rather than sexual orientation directly, so some LGBTQ+ adopters may not be fully captured in the number of adoptions). In 2025 figures show roughly 610 adoptions by same-gender couples out of ~3,040 total, which is about 20.1% of all adoptions. PLUS: The Arts, Lucy looks into what's happening within the Queer scene.
