Interested in fostering in Eastbourne?
There’s a national shortage of foster carers available to care for some of our most vulnerable children and young people and we’re looking to find passionate and dedicated individuals who are interested in fostering in Eastbourne and surrounding areas.
As the UK’s first independent fostering agency and founders of therapeutic foster care, we have over 30 years’ experience in training and developing professional foster carers, helping them to make an extraordinary difference.
Whether you’re new to fostering or looking to transfer, we’ll provide you with the specialist training and extensive 24/7 support that’ll help you become a true fostering professional.
BECOMING A FOSTER PARENT IN EASTBOURNE
Becoming a foster parent is one of the most rewarding things you’ll ever do – you’re giving a child, who may not have had the best start in life, a chance to flourish with your love, care and understanding.
Plus, the process may not be as difficult as you think – we’ll aim to complete your fostering assessment within 4-6 months. However, we’ll always move at a pace that’s right for you.
Extensive support, whenever you need it
As a therapeutic foster care agency, we work with children and young people in Eastbourne with complex needs. While this is incredibly rewarding, we also know that it can be challenging at times.
Over many years, we’ve developed a wrap-around support package that our foster parents can tap into, whenever they need it – you’re only ever a phone call away from professional advice and specialist services.
Just some of the professional support we offer includes;
- Dedicated Social Worker
- Therapists
- Educational experts
- Fostering advisors
