We are delighted to announce that Family Action and PAC-UK formally merged on Saturday 1 December 2018. PAC-UK, which offers specialist therapy, advice, support, counselling and training for all affected by adoption and permanency, joins the wide portfolio of services provided by Family Action that support people and families across the UK.

Family Action & PAC-UK formally merged on 1 December 2018. Read the full press release here.

PAC-UK brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise, which will complement and enhance Family Action’s present work supporting those involved with adoption and permanency. Both organisations are committed to developing, delivering and promoting best practice to support children and families and we look forward to working with everyone to continue PAC-UKs important and valuable work making a positive difference to the lives of people and families in the UK.

The merger will not reduce PAC-UK’s range of services, core expertise or reputation in any way, and its name will still be the same. Indeed both organisations hope that the merger will bring new opportunities for PAC-UK. We are determined to maintain PAC-UK’s Outstanding Ofsted rating and the deep knowledge and expertise amongst its staff and supporter base, all of which will enable us to continue to drive impact and sustainability.
