What is the difference between an independent fostering agency and Local Authority / Health Social Services Trusts fostering?
The Local Authorities / Health Social Services Trusts are ultimately responsible for the well being of all children in public care. They need to find the best way of looking after these children to make sure that they receive the best possible standard of care. Independent fostering agencies such as Acorn House provide a specialist fostering service to Local Authorities / Health Social Services Trusts and we work in partnership with them. We have our own foster carers and social workers who work hard to ensure that the needs of the carers and children are met to high standards and without delay.
