Fostering with Orchard Care North East gives you the opportunity to make a huge difference to a child’s life.
Many of the children with whom we work have complex needs. Many have had unhappy past experiences. Many more have been let down time and time again by the care system that was built to support them.
When you work alongside Orchard, enabling a young person's opportunities to thrive, develop and achieve, we will in turn support you - with advice, with expert knowledge, with open lines of communication, by showing that we care about your concerns and the challenges you face - so that, together, we can transform lives for the better.
At Orchard Care, emphasis is placed on the essentials of warmth, shelter, food, clothing, human contact, concern and interest. We offer an expression of our humanity as a base line for how we believe care should be.
Through time, our children can learn that there are certain things which are measures of healthy relationships and basic rights in life.
Our mixture of compassion, and recognition that we are all the same, is a key part of our approach.
