Every 15 minutes, a child comes into care in the UK.
We want every child to have a stable and loving home where they can thrive. Could you offer the home they need?
Explore fostering or adoptionOpen Letter to the Secretary of State for Education
Home for Good is calling on the Government to ensure that Black children are no longer overlooked within the care system. We are launching an open letter asking the Government to take action on racial disparity as part of the upcoming Care Review in England.
We can make a difference.
Home for Good believes that we all have a part to play to ensure that every child has the home they need. We work to mobilise the Church in the UK to respond to the needs of vulnerable children through families stepping forward to foster or adopt and churches wrapping around families with support, and to influence wider society through advocacy and engagement to create systemic change.
Together we can find a home for every child who needs one.
Welcome the stranger
This Christmas there will be around 100,000 children in the UK who are classified as looked after away from home. As you may have heard us share before, the pressures of Covid have meant that even more children have come into care this year, adding to the need for more foster and adoptive families right across the country. We want to change this, we need to find more safe and loving homes in 2021 to welcome vulnerable children, and so we need to ask for your help.
Foster families urgently needed.
There is an urgent need for foster carers everywhere. We are partnering with a number of Local Authorities across the UK and working specifically in Bexley, Bristol, East Lothian, Leeds, Lewisham, Northern Ireland, Nottinghamshire, Stoke-on-Trent and Wiltshire.
Together we can do better for Black children in care.

We will continue to work passionately on behalf of vulnerable children across the UK. Almost eight months after lockdown began, the impact of the pandemic and lockdown restrictions is becoming more and more apparent. We have identified three areas of particular concern.
