Becoming A Foster Carer for a Liverpool Fostering Agency

The foster care system in the UK is currently experiencing a shortage of foster carers. More foster carers are urgently needed in order to help care for vulnerable children. Recent estimates say that as many as 8,750 foster families are needed to help fill the gap. There has also been an increase in unaccompanied asylum seeking children in need of a loving home. At Lorimer Fostering, we are actively recruiting foster carers in the Liverpool and Merseyside region to join our Liverpool fostering agency. If you are over the age of 21, have a spare room in your home and experience working with children or young people, you could become a foster carer with us.

How does Fostering in Liverpool work?

Fostering is a challenging journey but is also one of the most rewarding things a person can do. If you are considering fostering in Liverpool and are currently researching your options, we can help. In Liverpool, we are desperately short of families to look after the children and young people currently in care. We are searching for more families who can make a difference in a young person’s life and provide a good home in and around the Liverpool area.

We know the vital role that foster carers play in ensuring young people receive the highest standards of care. Being a foster carer is certainly a varied, demanding and rewarding role. No two days are ever the same, and every child or young person will bring something new to your household.

How do we support our Liverpool foster carers?

To support you through the rosy and rocky times, we will be with you every step of the way. Whether it is early morning or in the middle of the night, Lorimer will provide 24-hour support so that help is always there should you need it. Our mission is to provide the highest quality of foster care in Liverpool, and one of the ways we do this is to ensure that we only recruit the best foster carers and then give them the training they need to succeed.
