We are inspected and approved by the consortium of London Boroughs under the regulations of the Pan London Contract. We are also registered with Ofsted in England and with the Care and Social Services Inspectorate Wales (CSSIW). Ofsted rated SFS as 'Outstanding' in our latest Inspection Report (2013).

'The quality of care is exceptional; children and young people are thriving within safe, loving households following excellent matching practice.' Ofsted 2011

Every 22 minutes a child comes into care and needs a foster family.

With more foster carers urgently needed, we're asking you to find time to care.

Our Mission:

'We work in partnership with Foster Carers and Local Authorities to enable children and young people to grow, develop and achieve their full potential within a stable, caring family environment.'

With offices in Kent, Essex, north London, south London and Cardiff SFS offer carers and local authorities the best of both worlds. A fostering agency small enough to offer a personal tailor made service and a fostering agency large enough to offer the support you need.

Local Authority Placement Teams can access our Live Placement Database for daily updated fostering availability. In the interests of confidentiality access to this part of our web site is restricted. To obtain a user name and password email duty@fostering.com
