Quality, Equality and Safety in Care

Our Aims and Objectives

The AFS aims to provide a range of placements for children and young people, both short term and long term with a view to:

  • Providing a substitute family for children/young people
  • Providing safe and secure family environment in our care
  • Rehabilitating children/young people back to their families
  • To prepare young people in our care for life skills
  • Preparing children/young people for moving on to a permanent placement where they cannot return home safely
  • Providing short breaks of care for children or young people from their families or carers


The objective of the agency is to meet the needs of children who are or may be temporarily or permanently separated from their families. The agency strives to promote a high level of care, guidance, encouragement, safety and security for children placed with its foster carers

In this pursuit our mission is to achieve Quality, Equality and Safety in care.
