What to expect

Could you foster? Or could you help find someone who can?

Right now in Peterborough, more children and young people need foster homes close to their schools, friends and communities. Could you be one of those people? Whether it's full-time, part-time, emergency, or respite care, or another type of fostering, there are children across Peterborough, all with unique needs, that could benefit from having someone like you open your home to them, so they have a safe, nurturing environment. All you need is a spare bedroom and the desire to use your available time to help.
