We are a not for profit organisation
Offering foster care, respite care and escort services for children and young people in care

What type of children does Anchor work with?
They are children who have experienced difficulties in their lives and need foster families who are prepared to work with them. They could be children with disabilities, emotional and behavioural difficulties, needing special care and attention.

What type of carers do we work with?
We work with carers who have:
• A genuine desire to work with children of all ages
• Patience and flexible outlook
• A spare bedroom (a foster child requiries their own room)
• Good health
• Ideally one main carer at home

Anchor will provide the carers with
• Basic training
• Ongoing training
• 24 hour telephone support
• Support visits
• A generous fostering allowance for the carers

There will always be someone on the end of a phone to answer any query.
