Welcome to Assured Fostering
Assured Fostering is an independent fostering agency, based in Bolton and is family owned. Our owners, Rukhsana Amla and Tasnim Kauser have been involved in fostering for many years and are dedicated to delivering a quality, independent fostering service.
At Assured Fostering, we’re committed to not only meeting but exceeding the standards of care. Our focus is not only on placing children in safe homes but also on providing ongoing support and resources to our dedicated foster families.
We are a team of highly experienced professionals who have worked within fostering for many years.
Foster care provides a temporary, sometimes long term, safe and nurturing environment for children unable to live within their own families for various reasons.
Fostering allows the children to be cared for and to be safe and supported while decisions are made by professionals involved in their care.
Fostering is unique and there will be many questions you will want to ask before making a decision as to whether it is right for you and your family. Although not exhaustive here are many of the questions we are asked. Please don’t hesitate to give us a call if you have further queries or want to talk anything though.
Fostering involves providing a nurturing environment for children who cannot live with their birth families. There are various types of fostering tailored to meet the individual and diverse needs of children.
Following your enquiry, by telephone, email or online, you will be contacted by one of our staff members.
