What is fostering?
Fostering is looking after a child or young person in your home and caring for them while their own parents are unable to do so.

What do foster carers do?
Foster carers provide a safe, secure and stable family environment for children in care and help them to develop and succeed while they are unable to live with their own family.

Why do children need fostering?
There are a variety of reasons that children may need to be fostered: for example, bereavement, neglect, illness or family breakdown. In some cases, a child or young person may be removed from his or her family for their own safety. What is important is that there is a foster family available nearby that can provide them with the care that they need.
