Before you choose any agency

An Ofsted rating is the regulator's judgement at inspection, not the whole picture. Read the full report, then ask the agency the money and support questions in writing - our choosing a service guide lists the ones that matter, and our council vs agency comparison explains the trade-offs no agency will volunteer.

Fostering for your local council is also always an option alongside any agency - see how the process works.
