Fostering In Norfolk
Foster carers play a crucial role in supporting vulnerable children across Norfolk and throughout the UK. For many young people who cannot live with their birth families, fostering provides the stability and security they need to begin rebuilding their lives. A safe, nurturing home environment gives children the chance to feel settled, valued and understood.
With consistent care, patience and guidance, foster carers help children develop confidence, resilience and hope for the future — regardless of their early experiences. The right environment can be transformative, enabling young people to grow into capable, independent adults.
At Fostering Hearts, our commitment is to ensure that every child who needs fostering has access to a compassionate, well-supported carer. By recruiting and standing alongside dedicated foster carers across Norfolk, we aim to help more children pursue their ambitions and move forward positively in life.
Why Foster With Us?
Fostering Hearts is an independent, family-run fostering agency built around strong relationships and meaningful support. When you foster with us, you are not simply taking on a role — you are joining a close community of carers and professionals who are committed to improving the lives of vulnerable children.
We make sure our foster carers feel confident and well-prepared. You’ll receive comprehensive training, ongoing development and regular supervision from a supervising social worker who supports a small number of families — around six — so guidance is personal and responsive. Our team also provides 24/7 support, ensuring you are never managing challenges on your own.
We understand that fostering is a significant commitment. That’s why we offer competitive fostering fees — £479.50 per week for children aged 0–10 and £507.50 per week for young people aged 11+ — alongside emotional and practical support throughout your journey.
With Fostering Hearts, you become part of something purposeful and supportive. Together, we work to create stable, nurturing homes where children can rebuild confidence, develop their strengths and move towards a brighter future.
“We are dedicated to recruiting 44 new fostering families in Norfolk over the next 36 months, we want to make a real difference locally”

Our Mission: Unlocking the Potential in Every Child
At Fostering Hearts, we are committed to helping every child who comes into our care move towards their full potential. We provide our foster carers with tailored guidance, training and practical resources so they can create stable, nurturing homes where young people feel safe enough to grow and explore who they are.
Through everyday experiences — from supporting hobbies and interests to planning educational outings and making space for meaningful conversations — our foster carers help children build confidence and discover their strengths. Progress often happens in small, steady steps, and we are there to support both carers and children throughout that journey.
We recognise that every child has individual needs, experiences and talents. That is why we look beyond the immediate and focus on the whole child, ensuring they have a secure environment where they can express themselves openly, develop new skills and begin to see what they are capable of achieving.
