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 for York:

  • is immensely rewarding and challenging
  • allows you to use your existing skills with children and young people
  • is flexible and home-based
  • allows you to receive an allowance of up to £25,000 per year, with additional tax allowances
  • offers fantastic training and support

A young person, aged 10, said:

Foster carers change lives.

Anyone who cares has the potential to be a foster carer. Watch our 'Any of Us could foster- YouTube.
