We have a dedicated fostering team in Leicester
From our Leicester base we have several social workers, Mandy, Jane and Varsha who are managed by Senior Practitioner, Dave Needle who has been supporting foster carers across the county for many years. Our Leicester team is supported by a dedicated admin, recruitment and management team based in Birmingham.
We are an experienced and qualified team who know our jobs and how to best support foster carers. We support each other to achieve positive outcomes for young people and foster carers. We are proud of our Capstone ‘family-feel’ environment and we achieve this by taking the time to get to know our fostering families, and making them feel part our team.
Join our Capstone family
We regularly host training, support groups and events where foster carers are invited to come together, meet each other, speak with the staff team and keep in touch with us about their fostering journey. We recently sponsored a panto production, directed by one of our foster carers, read more about it in our news section. We are a child-focused organization and we plan events for children throughout the year, recent trips for families included Drayton Manor, Conkers and Hatton Country World.
