Every year thousands of new foster carers are needed to care for the increasing number of vulnerable children coming into care in the UK.
If you are caring, patient and friendly, you’ll likely be able to handle the role of a foster carer well.
Here at Olive Branch, we are a friendly and supportive team of professionals that truly understand the needs of children and foster carers.
We offer a range of fostering types, each suitable for a different home environment, individual carer or foster family. We provide many fostering types for children and young people from birth until age 18.
Here at Olive Branch, we understand that fostering can be pretty demanding at times and is a full-time commitment; that’s why we pay our foster carers a generous fostering allowance that helps to support the foster child and acts as a reward for the carer, so they can focus on giving their foster child the best possible care.
At Olive Branch we really do believe that “we never stop learning because life never stops teaching”, that’s why we have created a culture of continuous learning and development where we learn from each other, share ideas, and grow together as a better, smarter agency.
Before you can start fostering, we must follow a set process to get you assessed and approved as a foster carer. We are here to guide and support you through the process every step of the way. Watch our short video to explain this.
The fostering process
When providing care for children all that should matter is that they have a safe, stable and loving home to call their own. This means that gender or relationship status shouldn’t impact whether you’re eligible to foster.
Here at Olive Branch Fostering, we are always looking for people who want to take up the foster carer role. Whether you have experience or are completely new to the world of fostering, our team is ready and waiting to chat about all things fostering.
Fostering is a transformative journey for foster children, carers and their families. Despite a treasure chest of benefits, including personal growth and changing a life for the better, there are a few hurdles to overcome.
