Every Day Is Everything

Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Adoption is joining You Can Adopt to launch a new campaign, shining the spotlight on adoptive families and sharing their stories of everyday life and the moments that matter most to them.

It's often the ordinary moments that mean the most – and that's what Every Day is Everything is all about.

Celebrating the everyday moments that help make a family, while reminding us that adoption isn't about being perfect - it’s about being there and showing up for a child, every day.

Adoption isn’t about being perfect, it’s about showing up for a child, every day.

For families, including adoptive parents, those everyday moments – no matter how big or small, silly, chaotic, hard, even the ones you might not even notice at the time – build over time and add up to everything. The school runs, the mealtimes, the bedtime conversations.

It's not about being perfect, it's about showing up and being there, day after day.

Every child needs and deserves to have a permanent home, and for those children who are still waiting for theirs, every day is everything.

Children in need of adoption are spending a significant amount of time without a permanent family.

In Cambridgeshire and Peterborough, children in need of adoption are spending an average of nine months of their childhood without a permanent family - for a young child, that is a huge proportion of their life. And in early childhood, every day matters.
