Our Ambition


Pioneering Excellence in Foster Care

At Skylark Fostering, our vision is steadfastly focused on achieving outstanding status through innovative and pioneering practices in foster care. We are dedicated to pushing the boundaries of traditional foster care methods by integrating advanced, creative strategies that significantly enhance the overall foster care experience for children, carers, and our dedicated staff. We cherish and cultivate a family-like atmosphere, promoting a tightly knit community where every member—whether a looked after child, carer, or staff—feels genuinely supported, valued, and integral to our collective achievements.

Our mission extends well beyond the conventional expectations of foster care. We endeavour to intricately weave the invaluable influences of a child’s wider family network with the supportive essence of friends and the broader community into our care strategies. This comprehensive approach not only enriches the fostering experience but also provides a robust support network that mirrors the warmth and inclusivity of a natural family environment.

We commit to providing life-enriching experiences that complement the high level of support offered to our foster carers. Our dedicated team is passionately focused on maintaining excellence, ensuring each foster carer is thoroughly equipped with the necessary training, resources, and ongoing support to excel in their roles. This expansive support system empowers our foster families to provide the best possible care, creating nurturing environments where children and young people can truly flourish.

By choosing to partner with Skylark, you become part of a progressive community where innovation in care and support is the standard, not the exception. Here, we see every day as a new opportunity to make a profound impact on the lives of children and young people, ensuring they not only succeed but thrive in an environment that champions their potential and prioritises their growth into well-rounded individuals.

Our initiatives include collaborative partnerships with local educational institutions and community organisations to provide our looked after children with unique opportunities for personal development, from academic support to recreational activities. These partnerships help to broaden the horizons of the children in our care, offering them a spectrum of experiences that contribute to their growth and development.

Joining Skylark Fostering means becoming part of a visionary project where every role is crucial, every contribution valued, and every success celebrated. We strive each day to be the best fostering agency there is, setting benchmarks in the industry for care, support, and community integration. With Skylark, foster care transforms from a temporary arrangement to a transformative journey for everyone involved.
