Having worked with young people for over 25 years, Ruth has extensive experience in developing services to support young people who have had challenging backgrounds. She is passionate about young people benefitting from services to help them grow into adulthood and sees stable families as a key way to encourage them to reach their potential.
Families for Children Trust is a Specialist Voluntary Adoption Agency and charitable trust based in the South West of the UK.
Families for Children believe that the best place for a child to grow is with their birth families. However where this is not possible we endeavour to find new adoptive families who can offer them a stable and loving home.
