Almost anyone can become a Foster Carer. Provided you are over the age of 21, it doesn't matter how old you are, if you are single or in a relationship, or if you're a man or a woman.

Vulnerable children and young people need new homes where they are safe and can start to enjoy life again. They can't do this without the help of a Foster Carer, and that's where you come in.

Becoming a Foster Carer to one or more children requires flexibility, commitment, patience and a willingness to learn new skills. You'll need to be available to offer a child around the clock support in your own home, on a long term basis. Do you have what it takes?
