Welcome

Fostering with Pathway Care is all about giving local children a chance. Each year thousands of young people find themselves in situations that mean that they have to leave their family home. These young people who come into foster care are often frightened and confused and in need of somebody to offer them a stable and safe home environment.

Most people can foster, as long as you are over 23, have room in your home and a desire to make a difference to a young person's life. You may already be an existing carer with another agency, looking for a change, or you may be someone looking to begin a new career path in child care. Foster Carers come from all ages and cultural backgrounds and live in all kinds of homes. They may be married, single, gay or straight,retired, employed or unemployed, they may or may not have children of their own. It doesn't matter.
