Our Mission

As a child-centred fostering agency, our goal is simple: providing outstanding care to children and young people. We want to support our children and young people in building meaningful relationships with our foster carers, helping them establish trust and develop their self-esteem.

Our therapeutic approach to fostering means we place the needs of our children at the heart of every decision we make, providing holistic support that ensures the can secure positive, fulfilling futures.

Supporting Our Carers

Like our children, we know that every foster carer is unique. We’re proud of our diverse community of carers, all of whom come from different backgrounds and life experiences.

At Compass Fostering, we aim for a personal approach. We take the time to really get to know you, establishing a strong relationship with you and your family to ensure you receive tailored support that meets your individual needs.

Put simply, we’ll look after you, so you can look after them.

With Compass, you’ll receive a generous fostering allowance that recognises and values your skills. This covers your day-to-day expenses, alongside your professional fostering fee. We’ll also make sure you benefit from a range of quality training, nurturing your growth and empowering you with the skills and knowledge to really make a difference.
