What makes a good foster home?

Children and young people need the stability and reassurance of a loving home to thrive. When a social worker completes your initial visit, that's exactly what they are looking for. We aim to get an understanding of why you want to foster and how you would provide a stable and nurturing environment for a child.

"We don't expect the Ritz, but we do expect the best for our young people. As long as your home is clean, safe and warm, and you can fill it with love and laugher then you want to hear from you." Jonny, Foster with North East Social Worker
