Could you use your skills and capabilities to help us to keep children local, in or near their hometown to make life changing impacts? Could you support and nuture them, encourage their development and provide a loving, caring home?


We want you to foster with us.

Being a foster carer is incredibly rewarding for both you and the children you care for. As a community, we have a responsibility for our local children to grow up in an environment where they can be nurtured to develop. This care is rewarding for our foster carers and can have incredible impacts for children.  

We know it can come with challenges. However, we’re here to support you through your journey with 24-hour support, regular training and local events to meet likeminded carers. 

Our foster carers are from our variety of backgrounds, including but not limited to policing, social care and teaching, and they are here to support each other on the journey. 

We want to hear from you.

Start your journey by filling in our enquiry form. To speak to our team, email fostering@telford.gov.uk or call us on 01952 387387.

A conversation with us is just that – there’s no pressure and we will help you to make the right decision for you, your family and our children. 


A foster carer could be any of us – could it be you?
