Become a foster carer in Didcot
Foster carers are trained professionals who work alongside a dedicated fostering team. You’ll have local support, plus generous pay and benefits. Together, we’ll make a positive difference in the lives of vulnerable young people.
Why foster with Five Rivers?
We are a team; our social enterprise has a pioneering approach, meaning you work alongside therapists and frontline professionals.
A local team in Didcot means you will have access to:
- In-person catch-ups with people you know well.
- Local support groups, training and activities.
- Friendships with local fostering families.
Meet Foster Carers Maxine and Wayne
For Maxine and Wayne, fostering isn’t a career, it’s a way of life.
The couple have provided a caring home for 14 children in their five years as Foster Carers and helped several groups of brothers and sisters transition into adoption with their forever families, as well as offering a short-term home for others.
