Foster carers are ordinary people doing an extraordinary role.

They provide care for children and young people who aren’t able to live safely with their birth families.

We urgently need local foster carers to provide York children and young people with safe, loving homes.

Fostering York is designed to help you to decide if fostering is the right path for you. It also aids those who are already foster carers to find support and training or transfer to York if you're already a foster carer in a local authority or independent fostering agency and would like to transfer to York.

How Fostering York can help you

Through the Fostering York website, we'll provide information about:

  • becoming a foster carer
    • the types of foster care
    • who can foster
    • the steps to becoming an approved foster carer
  • pay and allowances
  • fostering support
  • fostering training
  • transferring to York
  • fostering information events
