Creating Safe, Loving Homes for Every Child
We work closely with foster parents, social workers, and community partners to create positive and lasting impacts in the lives of children in need. Whether you are interested in becoming a foster parent or seeking support for a child, AC-Fostering is here to guide you every step of the way.

What is Foster Care?
Foster care offers a safe, supportive home for children when their biological families cannot provide care. Our trained and approved foster carers provide nurturing, kindness, and stability, ensuring the emotional and mental well-being of each child.

Fostering vs. Adoption
While adoption is a permanent arrangement where adoptive parents take full legal responsibility, fostering is typically a temporary arrangement. The local authority and birth parents maintain legal responsibility for the child in foster care.

Choosing AC as your Fostering Agency
Choosing AC as your independent fostering agency. We will provide extensive training, 24/7 support, and a community that is passionate about making a difference in the lives of children.

Fostering Allowance and Finances
Fostering is both a vocation and a career. At AC-Fostering, we offer competitive fostering allowances to ensure foster carers are supported financially while providing exceptional care to children.

Who Can Foster?
Fostering is open to people from all walks of life. We encourage applications from individuals of all ethnicities, cultures, religions, abilities, and from the LGBT+ community. Whether you're single, married, a homeowner, or a tenant, what truly matters is your capacity to provide care and nurture for a child.
The Approval Process
Begin your foster carer journey by completing an enquiry form, undergoing a home visit, filling out an application, participating in training, and finally being matched with your first foster child.
