Interested in fostering in Leicestershire?

There's currently almost 700 children and teenagers living in foster care in Leicester and a further 600 across the rest of Leicestershire. We're urgently looking for more foster parents to ensure that every child in care has a safe, loving home. If you're interested in joining our Leicestershire fostering team, then we'd love to hear from you.

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 parents, 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 LEICESTERSHIRE

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.
