From the beginning, fostering with Action for Children felt like a family and that we were part of something special.
Our focus is always with the child or young person at the centre.
Our aim is to always ensure that we can offer stable foster homes that will enhance the child or young person’s life chances.
That’s why we will really get to know you, your skills, and expertise to find the most suitable foster carer for a child or young person in need of care.
Action for Children Fostering has significant expertise in finding the best possible match between children and foster families.
We have a team of professionals on hand whenever you might need them. These include social workers, clinical psychologists, therapeutic practitioners and nurses.
We are extremely proud of the support, training and benefits that we offer to our foster carers.
Supporting you
The training really helps and was excellent. After we got approved, we attended a support group once a month, it’s invaluable. The best thing is the social worker is always at the other end of the phone. Action for Children themselves is like a big family, we know all of them and they know all of us.
