why choose us?
Foster Wales Merthyr Tydfil isn't your standard fostering agency. We’re a connected, caring network of all the 22 Local Authority fostering services across Wales.
Why choose us? For starters, we’re not-for-profit. That means money isn’t our agenda – we care about what’s best for the children in our care and the foster families who support them, before anything else.
As one big team, Foster Wales is dedicated to the goal of building better futures for local children. We do this by investing all we have into the skills and development of our foster carers, the children themselves, and the local community.
our mission
Geographically, Merthyr Tydfil may be small. But within our community, there are children who need us, and need you too.
They are babies, toddlers, teenagers, siblings and young parents. They each have their own unique story, but what they share is a fostering network who watches over them to ensure the best possible future.
our support
We aren’t a distant organisation. We’re close by, in the community, and that means you have all the support you need. From phone calls to advice from our experts, we’re your complete local support network.
However you progress in your role as a foster carer, we’ll be beside you every step of the way. All our dedicated expertise, advice and training are yours. Whatever you need, we’ll be there.
our ways of working
We know the value of working together – connection and collaboration are at the heart of everything we do. We stay in touch.
We’re right beside you, part of the fabric that makes up the community. Committed to being there, for you and the children in our care.
Each one is an individual with unique needs. Our foster carers are one of a kind too, and our role is to help them be the best they can be – just by being themselves. We recognise their existing talents and experience, and build on these as their fostering journey continues.
it’s your choice
It’s your choice to foster, and selecting the right fostering agency is another important decision. By choosing Foster Wales, you choose to join a network of people invested in you and in making the biggest difference we can. People who are trained and dedicated, and understand the realities of life in our community.
