LGBTQ+ foster carers
LGBTQ+ foster carers are a vital part of our fostering community.
In Brighton & Hove, we are proud to have many LGBTQ+ foster families
Our fostering community includes many foster carers who are LGBTQ+. We have strong links with Brighton & Hove LGBTQ+ community groups and organisations and we are well supported by them. If you are part of an LGBTQ+ community group and would like to connect with us, we would love to hear from you.
We are a member of New Family Social (NFS), a UK charity, led by LGBTQ+ adopters and foster carers. NFS exists to help you decide if adoption or fostering is right for you and will support you throughout the fostering assessment process and post approval. NFS offers impartial advice, forums and events and it is run by LGBTQ+ adopters and foster carers who have been through this process themselves.
