A friend has given me a set of CX wheels for my CX bike which has a 15mm bolt through fork. The problem is the wheels have a 12mm hub on the front wheel. is it possible to fit an adaptor to the fork to minimize the gap between the hole diameter on the fork and the axle or can i adapt the hub to take a 15mm through axle??

Thanks so much in advance.

What wheels/hubs are they?

Some hubs can have the end caps swapped out so they're able to run QR/12mm/15mm.
