Across Lincolnshire and Peterborough, hundreds of children and young people need safe, supportive foster homes where they can feel secure, understood and cared for. Foster carers play a vital role in helping children through challenging times, offering stability, care and encouragement when it matters most.
We are particularly in need of foster carers across Peterborough, Spalding, Crowland and the Deeping's who can support sibling groups, teenagers, and parent and child arrangements, helping families stay together while providing guidance and stability. People from all walks of life can foster – you don’t need to be in a couple, own your home, or have previous professional experience with children. What matters most is having the time, patience and commitment to care for a child.
All our foster carers receive full training, ongoing professional support and a fostering allowance, so you are never on your own. We make sure you feel confident, prepared and supported every step of the way.
If you’ve ever thought about fostering but aren’t sure where to start, our informal drop-in events at Deeping Community Centre are a great first step. These relaxed sessions give you the chance to:
There’s no obligation to apply – just open, honest conversations to help you decide whether fostering could be right for you.
