East Midlands Family Placement Project seeks to recruit foster carers across the East Midlands region. Our primary aim is to provide long-term foster placements for children and young people who need safe, stable and permanent homes within their own communities, or within similar communities so that their religious and cultural needs can be met. We also need ‘short break’ carers who support full-time foster carers by looking after their foster child for a few hours a week/weekends or school holidays.

Barnardo’s helps thousands of children, young people and their families – many problems take time to tackle but we never give up on a child or young person who needs our support.
