Who needs fostering?
There are a number of different reasons why children come into foster care.
It could be a temporary solution while a family crisis is sorted out or their parents are finding it difficult to cope and need a helping hand.
Some children may have experienced abuse, neglect or domestic violence. Whatever the reason it's through no fault of their own.
There is always a need to find foster carers for teenagers and where possible we try to keep brothers and sisters together. We also recognise the benefit to children of living with families who share their culture, language and religion.
