Were you aware that, in England today, there are well over 68,000 children and young people in care? Of these, around 75 per cent are looked after by foster parents, and this is where you come in.

The Foster Care Agency (TFCA) has been providing safe and caring placements with its foster carers since 2001. There is a shortage of foster carers in south-east London, Kent and surrounding areas. and we are looking to recruit new families who want to make a real difference to a child or young person’s life.

Fostering can be challenging but also incredibly rewarding and fun. Every carer is unique and can make a real difference to the chances that a young person has in life. You might be single or living with your partner, gay or straight or from any ethnic background. Providing that you have at least one spare bedroom, the time and flexibility in your life and enjoy working with young people we want to hear from you!

Working with us you become part of our team. We offer training and dedicated 24/7 support to all our carers. Together we all have the same aim and that is to do our best for each and every child that is placed with our carers.

If you are interested to find out more about how you can make a difference call us on 0208 419 1144 or contact us via our website www.thefostercareagency.org.uk
