Fostering South West is a collaboration of 15 local councils united in the mission of providing safe and loving homes for children in care. In North Somerset, we are seeking compassionate individuals and families who want to make a lasting difference in the lives of vulnerable children.
The Role:
Foster carers in North Somerset are vital in providing stability and care for children who may face a range of challenges. Some children require long-term placements, others need to stay with siblings, and many may have additional needs, such as special educational needs or disabilities (SEND).
As a foster carer, you’ll offer more than just a roof over a child’s head—you’ll create a nurturing environment where they feel valued, supported, and empowered to thrive.
What We Offer:
- 24/7 Support: Our team is always on hand to provide advice and assistance.
- Tailored Training: Gain the skills and knowledge needed to support children with diverse needs, including trauma-informed care and SEND.
- Localised Resources: Access support and guidance specific to the fostering community in North Somerset.
- Community Connection: Join a network of foster carers, sharing experiences and gaining mutual support.
Who We’re Looking For:
We welcome individuals and families from all walks of life. Whether you’re single, married, or have children of your own, fostering is open to anyone with the compassion and resilience to make a difference.
Why Foster with Us?
Fostering is a unique and rewarding way to give back to your community, offering life-changing opportunities to children while enriching your own life with purpose and fulfilment.
