Anchor foster Care Services will always aim to provide the right kind of care and support to children and young people in either foster placements with our committed carers or our semi independent units for care leavers.
Thinking of becoming a carer?
If you are looking for a group of dynamic committed enthusiastic people to work with, then Anchor is the place for you.
We offer individualised support, supervision and training to carers and young people. We offer a fostering allowance that reflects your professional status as a carer, 15 days respite, a weeks break in summer for the child, day respite when needed by arrangement, "a support package that is next to none..." as one of our carers put it.
