Join the friendliest fostering agency in Staffordshire

At Orange Grove, we are committed to giving children in care happy and nurturing childhoods with foster parents who love them like their own.

Based near Stoke-On-Trent, we support foster families across Staffordshire, Cheshire, Shropshire, West Midlands, Derbyshire, Leicestershire, and Nottinghamshire.

As an Orange Grove foster parent, you’ll receive unwavering and always non-judgmental support from your local, dedicated team.

Dedicated support from your local team

This includes your very own supervising social worker, a family support worker and a team manager. You’ll also have access to a network of educational experts and therapists.

Opportunities to meet other foster parents

We recognise that fostering can be challenging at times, and having a close-knit circle of friends with first-hand experience can be vitally important.

That’s why we provide you with lots of opportunities to meet other foster parents through our training sessions, support groups, events, and more.

Extra support if you're new to fostering

Starting out in fostering can be incredibly daunting, and we never want you to feel alone.

When you join our Staffordshire fostering agency,  you’ll also be ‘buddied up’ with one of our more experienced foster parents, who will help you settle into your new role.

We'd love to hear from you

While our foster parents are already making a huge difference to young people in care, there are still so many more children who urgently need a safe, loving home.

If you’re interested in becoming a foster parent, then we’d love to hear from you. With you, we could help more children heal from their past experiences and look forward to a brighter future.

Could you foster? 

There aren’t many requirements to apply to foster a child. All that we ask is that you: 

  • Are over 21 years old
  • Have the legal right to live and work in the UK
  • Have a spare bedroom that's always available to a child
  • Can offer a stable, loving home to a child

By phone

One of our team is available to talk to you over the phone to answer any of your fostering queries.

Building bonds that last – in Staffordshire and beyond

Relationships are everything to us. They provide a stable platform for growth, which is why we commit time, effort and resources into nurturing them constantly.

We take time to get to know our young people so we can match them with the right families. We treat our foster parents as professionals, tailoring support to meet their needs. Finally, we build strong relationships with local authorities and other partners to ensure we’re all doing the best job we can for children in care.

So, whether you’re looking to take your first steps towards fostering or you’re an experienced foster parent in search of a more fulfilling experience, why not join our Staffordshire fostering family? Together, we can build brighter futures for even more children in care.
