Proudly supporting children across the North East of England for almost 70 years. As part of the regional charity St Cuthbert’s Care, our care is rooted in compassion, community and commitment.

Why Choose a Not-for-Profit Fostering Agency?

Unlike some agencies, we’re not here to make a profit. Every penny goes back into providing the best possible outcomes for the children and families we support. Our not-for-profit model means we invest in our foster carers, too – through extensive training, round-the-clock support and real recognition for the work they do.

Foster with Heart – Foster with Purpose

We work closely with local authorities across the North East to find the right match for every child. By joining our team of amazing foster carers, you’ll help to give vulnerable children the stability and care they need to thrive.

Whether you’re ready to start or just want to find out more, we’re here to help. Our friendly team will support you from the first chat to your first placement and beyond.

We’re currently offering a £500 welcome bonus to every new carer.
