In the spotlight
The emphasis on diversity and inclusivity in recruiting foster carers is not just a necessity but a fundamental aspect of ensuring that children's backgrounds and identities are respected and celebrated. This commitment enriches the fostering experience for both the children and the carers, creating a sense of belonging and understanding within the home.
Fostering with us offers you an incredible opportunity to make a lasting impact on a child's life. You'll witness firsthand the growth, healing, and potential of the children in your care and how rewarding it can be. We provide training and support to help empower foster carers with the skills and knowledge needed to thrive in their role, ensuring that they can provide the best possible care.
If you're looking to make a profound difference in someone else's life and are ready to foster, we would love to hear from you.
Your decision to become a foster carer has the potential to positively transform not only the life of a child but also your own.

The fostering process
“I wanted to put my professional skills and training to a higher cause; vulnerable children. They need you now more than ever. If you're a professional and want more in life, I recommend fostering. It's challenging, but more rewarding than you can imagine.”
- Medway foster carer, 15 years
