Fostering In Peterborough

Foster with Peterborough logo

Peterborough City Council’s Fostering Service is proud to be part of the Foster East network, a collaboration of 11 local councils in the East of England working together to make sure foster carers and the children they look after can thrive. We are working together to ensure that anyone who is considering fostering for their council has access to the very best training and support as they complete the application process and become a foster carer.

Foster East will inform us that you have made an enquiry, and we will contact you so that we can find out more about you and discuss all of the exciting options that you have available to you. We look forward to welcoming you into our fostering community.

There are more than 7000 children in care at any one time across the East of England. We need your help give these children the chance to thrive in a safe and caring family home. By fostering with your council as part of Foster East, you will receive the very best, local training, and exceptional support from a dedicated team so you can foster with confidence.

Together we can make life better for children in care, by working together to keep them rooted in their local community near friends and family, and attending their usual school while they are being looked after.

Enquire today and help us change the lives of children in our care.

Life as a foster carer is a hugely rewarding life-changing experience, and no two days are ever the same. If you want to make a real, positive difference to the lives of local children and young people, there has never been a better time than now to join us – so please get in touch.

Our pages have everything you need to know about how you can become a local foster carer and the support we will give you on your fostering journey.

When you foster with Peterborough City Council, you will become a member of a professional, nurturing team who will provide you with the best local support and local networking opportunities available. Our support and training are all locally based, giving you plenty of opportunities to socialise with and learn from your fellow foster families.
