About room

Many people make room in their homes and lives for children: but what about a child that isn't your own? Could you open your home and lend a hand?

Some children and young people in Wakefield are unable to live with their own families for a variety of reasons and are in desperate need of a caring, safe and stable environment.

Becoming a foster carer in Wakefield can help to nurture and protect vulnerable children and young people, leaving them with positive memories and the chance to achieve what every child deserves.

Whether it's fostering for a short period of time while a family get back on their feet or providing a permanent home, your help could change a child or young person's life experiences for the better. If spare time is an issue for you, carers are also needed in Wakefield to offer temporary care (days and overnight) for children with disabilities so that their parents can get a much-needed break.
