With over 20 years in the industry, PP is a well-established, highly respected and successful fostering agency that is rated "outstanding" by Ofsted. It's our desire to offer excellent support to our foster carers so that they can provide the best possible level of care to the children they look after; giving them hope and transforming their futures.
The purpose of foster care is to provide a stable, safe and nurturing environment for children who cannot be looked after by their own families. Sometimes children live with their foster family for a few days, and other times until they are grown up.
Foster parents play a key role in transforming the lives of vulnerable children and young people. They give hope and a second chance for children who, otherwise, would be forgotten. Being a foster carer is hugely rewarding and enjoyable. Knowing that you are making a lasting difference in the lives of children and young people is really satisfying, and makes the hard work and challenges that come along the journey all the more worthwhile.
