Many children will arrive from homes troubled by violence, abuse, illness, neglect, drink or drug addiction, but whatever they've experienced, most will be feeling confused and anxious about having to move in with strangers.
It's a foster carer's responsibility to bring stability and continuity to children's lives while difficulties are being sorted out. The secret is simply to offer what every child wants and needs - family life, friends, love and respect.
We are currently recruiting foster carers for children of all ages and abilities.
