Our foster carers come from diverse backgrounds.
We welcome applications from people of all religions, sex, genders, race, age, sexual orientation and marital status.
You may be non-disabled or living with an impairment. You may have children of your own, your children may have flown the nest, or you may be retired with time on your hands.
You may have relevant and transferable experiences from working in related areas e.g. youth work, teaching, residential care or paediatric nursing.
As long as you’re over 21, all that matters to us is that you’re healthy enough to meet the challenges and rewards fostering will provide.

At Wiltshire Council we’re focussed on finding local foster carers for local young people, and providing local support for both.
We always try to keep young people within the local area and make sure that siblings find a home where they can stay together.
What really matters to us is keeping young people safe.
