The Fairer Fostering Partnership

The Fairer Fostering Partnership Each of our member agencies has its own unique and distinctive approach to fostering.

The Fairer Fostering Partnership is a group of charitable and not-for-profit fostering agencies across the UK whose members look after over 2,000 children in care. The Fairer Fostering Partnership is a group of charitable and not-for-profit fostering agencies across the UK whose members look after over 2,000 children in care.

​We represent the views, perspectives and experience of our member agen

cies. All of us offer a variety of able, experienced and trained carers plus a wraparound service package tailored to the needs of each individual child or young person. In the charitable and not-for-profit sector, all our resources remain within each provider to ensure a total focus on the needs of children and young people. This transparency and accountability is welcome in the current climate where local authorities need to know they are getting full value for their budget. Fairer Fostering also has a lobbying function that aims to advocate for children in respect of regulation, as well as representing its membership at central government level.

​Fostering through Social Enterprise (FtSE) was established in 2007; and in 2017, we changed our name to The Fairer Fostering Partnership.

Member News from Break charity: The Real Story Behind High-Cost Children's Placements.

"In recent weeks and months, there has been growing attention on the cost of high-needs children’s placements. The headlines are stark: children costing more than a million pounds a year to care for; private companies and hedge fund-backed providers making vast profits from some of the most vulnerable children in our society. Those headlines matter. But they do not tell the whole story."

Some more fun being had and memories being made at our yearly residential trip! Our young people have been getting stuck in and making a splash with some kayaking! Well done to all those that might not be the most naturally confident out on the water and pushing themselves out of their comfort zone! 🛶🌊

In this weeks' episode of The Fair Ways People Podcast, Fair Ways is joined by Gethin Jones, founder of Unlocking Potential and passionate advocate for trauma-informed change. 🎙️

Gethin shares his journey through social care, children’s homes, secure units, the justice system, addiction and recovery. Exploring how trauma, institutionalisation and exclusion can shape a person’s life.

He discusses the HOPE model, the power of lived experience and why relapse should be seen as part of learning rather than failure.

Years from now, they may not remember every conversation.
But they'll remember who walked beside them.
Who kept showing up.
Who made them feel safe enough to keep going.

One of the greatest Foster Carer superpowers isn't being perfect.
It's being there.
Again and again.

This is Fostering!

Congratulations to Tracey and Stephen who celebrated their 15 year anniversary as TACT Foster Carers this year!🎉

Their fostering journey began which a chance advert on the radio and a juncture in their lives where they had an opportunity to make a big change. They began fostering as a family with their young son and have never looked back, speaking with Tracey recently she said:

"Fostering is a way of opening up your home and heart and giving support at a very crucial and difficult time in a child’s life. So, if you think that’s something you can do, then you’ll be able to take on any challenges that may arise because it’s all worth it when you see their faces and the difference you’re making to their lives."
