Three of the most trusted experts in their field come together

​

The Open Mind Adoption and Guardianship Consultancy is a team of accredited Independent Assessors with over 70 years cumulative experience in working with families as they transition from caring for children to become legal families both in Australia and in the United Kingdom.
