We believe that every child deserves the chance to thrive – at home, school and within the positive relationships they build. We provide our carers with the best quality training to ensure the young people in their care can reach their true potential.
Along with excellent training, our foster carers also receive a competitive fostering allowance and bonuses, around-the-clock support and benefit from a close network of other carers and staff who become like a second family – so they never feel alone.
Can You Become a Foster Carer in Gloucester?
To apply to be a foster carer you must be 21 years of age or older, have British citizenship, a spare room and a strong desire to nurture a child in care.
We’ll help you with the whole process of applying to be a foster carer and are on hand to answer any questions you may have about fostering. You can also attend one of our fostering open days to meet our team and find out of fostering is for you.
The majority of the children we have fostered are grown up and have moved on, they still come to visit us. They know that our door is always open.

A Welcome from Lesley Greenfield, Registered Manager
Hi, I’m Lesley Greenfield, the Registered Manager for Clifford House.
To give you a little idea about who Clifford House are, we’re a small independent fostering agency based in the West Midlands with a big beating heart. One of the most important things to us is creating a strong sense of family in everything we do.
We’re small enough to know all our families and children, and have a friendly and professional team who will provide you with the quality training and support you need to make a real difference. Being a foster parent is life changing – for you, your family and the children in your care – and we’re committed to making it the very best experience it can be for everyone.
To learn more on what it takes to become a foster parent, please fill out our enquiry form and a member of our friendly team will be in touch with you.
The agency works hard to match children to foster carers who are best placed to meet children’s needs well.
