Grandparents Plus works with 83 local authorities and regional adoption agencies across England and Wales, supporting special guardians and other kinship carers.
We offer a membership structure, which gives additional benefits and the flexibility to build support that fits the specific needs of carers within your local authority. Details of each of our commissioned services are below. Please contact kate.obrien@grandparentsplus.org.uk to arrange a time to discuss your local authority or RAA’s specific needs and potential discounted options.
