Fostering

Welcome to Fostering

We provide safe, caring homes for children and young people who aren’t able to live with their birth families. There’s always a demand for our service – so we always welcome new Foster Carers.

It doesn’t matter what ethnic group you’re from – or if you’re married, divorced, living with a partner or single; gay or lesbian; own or rent your home; have a disability, a qualification or a job. All you need is a dedication to making vulnerable young lives better, and a spare room.

Come to an Information Evening

Meet fostering social workers and foster carers, see a presentation, get your questions answered, have a coffee. But please call us first if you can, so we know how many people to expect.  Dates and locations here.

What's new?

FOSTER CARERS GET £600 COMPUTER GRANT!

Devon County Council is providing £600 towards a computer and internet connection for every fostering family. It’s to give the young people they look after access to educational opportunities, so they won’t be at a disadvantage.
