The fostering process
In the spotlight
We’re proud to be partnering with 19 other local councils as part of a new regional fostering recruitment hub – Local Authority Fostering South East.
We’re joining forces for the first time to recruit and support more amazing foster carers able to provide safe, loving and local homes for children across our region.
Visit the Local Authority Fostering South East website or get in touch to find out more information.
“I wanted to put my professional skills and training to a higher cause; vulnerable children. They need you now more than ever. If you're a professional and want more in life, I recommend fostering. It's challenging, but more rewarding than you can imagine.”
