Our Support
Here at Lotus, we help our foster carers to grow and develop to become the best possible carer they can. We achieve this by offering a range of training and support. We put children at the heart of every decision, and we believe that all children deserve to live in a loving, safe and stable environment.
Making a Referral
The team at Lotus has extensive experience in matching and placing children with foster carers. We believe that success in fostering and achieving the best outcomes for children and young people has a great deal to do with the matching process between child and foster family.
Out Of Hours
Lotus is here for you 24 hours a day! We operate an out-of-hours emergency line for any EDT placement requests. The out-of-hours social work team has extensive knowledge around available carers and can support EDT colleagues. Please don't hesitate to contact us.
We're Here to Help
Feedback from Local Authorities
Lotus are very responsive and are available to attend pre-placement meetings at short notice with the foster carers to undertake matching and ask questions. We have found that this has assisted with the stability of placements.
I have recently placed two YP with Lotus and had a very good experience with the team being clear, responsive and quick.
You all work amazingly well with some of our complex young people, in such a trauma informed way.
Really great. The additional support worker/student social worker in addition to the allocated supervising social worker has been very helpful.
The support is helpful. SSW is always in communication and demonstrates a good ability to work in partnership around AS’s needs.
The foster carer is brilliant with putting the needs of the child first and ensuring all needs are met to a good standard.
