In the UK try this site:

If you know the adoption agency who dealt with your adoption, then contact them. They will help.

If you know where you were born, contact the hospital or local authority in that area and ask what adoption agencies were operating at the time of your birth.

It will help of course if you have the names or any other info about your birth parents.

Good luck.
