To coincide with the opening, St Christopher’s is launching its biggest ever fostering recruitment drive in the Southend area.

The fostering team and development service will be in Southend, talking to people in schools and making fostering literature available in libraries, hospitals and other public places. Leaflets are also being distributed by mail all over Southend.

Working in partnership with Southend on Sea Borough Council to provide foster care, we aim to make a big difference in the lives of the many children requiring foster care in the area. Our first priority is to recruit more foster carers.

If you live in the Southend area and you are interested in fostering, we would like to hear from you.

St Christopher’s foster carers receive expert training, 24/7 support and a generous allowance.

You don’t need to be married, a homeowner, or have children of your own (see our frequently asked questions).

If you are a caring, understanding person with some experience of childcare and a spare room, please call us on 0800 234 6282 or fill in our enquiry form.
