About us

At the heart of fostering is the belief that every child deserves safety, stability and someone who believes in them. As a children’s charity, we’re here to make that possible.

This page shares who we are, the therapeutic care that shapes our approach, the support and training we wrap around every carer, and why so many people choose Action for Children Fostering. It’s a glimpse into what drives us — and how we stand beside you every step of the way.

Therapeutic care

All of our foster carers are trained in therapeutic parenting techniques to give children the care, love and stability that they so desperately need.
