Read and watch LGBT+ fostering stories
We proudly believe that any loving person can make a wonderful foster carer to a child in need of a stable, supportive home.
We welcome people from all walks of life and have supported LGBT+ foster carers for many years. We believe that if we have a diverse group of foster carers, we can better match children and young people to their perfect home.
Below, a few of our foster carers talk about their experience of fostering with Barnardo's.
