Our foster carers come from a wide range of backgrounds. Some of them have lots of qualifications, and some of them have none.

What they all have in common is the desire to learn about fostering, in order to do their best for vulnerable children and young people.

We provide training for everyone prior to being approved as a foster carer, and ongoing training after approval. This covers a wide range of topics and subjects, from first aid and record keeping to managing challenging behaviour and online safety.
