We are a community of foster carers, children and young people, staff and volunteers in Scotland. Our community cares for young people in family settings when they cannot live with their own families. We provide safe and nurturing homes to help them thrive and reach their potential.
Our charity has been supporting children and young people in Scotland for over 200 years. Originally an orphanage, today we provide family-based care offered by carers skilled in therapeutic parenting.
Foster care is highly rewarding. There are challenges, but with help and support, you can positively change the life of a young person. Many more foster carers are needed across Scotland.
Foster carers are self-employed and receive a weekly fee and a young person’s allowance.
We have been answering questions about fostering for a very long time:
Fostering charity is named 8th best small organisation in the UK for Wellbeing, an accolade that benefits the children and young people they support.
Carolina House Trust is celebrating the announcement that they are the 9th Best Workplace for Development in the UK. Team engagment with learning improves outcomes for young people.
Foster carer, Andy, urges other familes to consider fostering as young person, Dominic shares how living with the family has been positive for him.
