The aim of this section of the website is to bring to life the authentic and real stories of our foster carers, birth children, staff and most importantly children who are fostered. You will be able to watch and read inspiring stories, keep up to date with our events and our podcast Focus on Fostering
Fostering requires the right kind of person. We need to know you have the right kind of skills, experience and knowledge to support a child or young person. In order for us to identify carers that are able to provide the necessary care, we have a thorough approval process that takes at least 6 months. We’ve identified 15 key steps in the foster care approval process that will take you from first enquiry to profile matching.
We know that when it comes to taking the first step to becoming a foster carer, a lot of questions come with it. Below, we’ll answer some of the most common questions you might have to help you make the right decision for you.
