Hi I am just wondering about all your experiences with agencies. who do you use and what are they like. I know your meant to research your agency but how do you do that when theres very little out there, other than ofsted reports. Can't find any reviews/experiences, so at the moment they all seem the same. Whats a good one and whats a bad one?

where abouts in the country are you?

Cheshire

I would start with the local authority and then select a few other agencies in the local area to contact. You can get a list from the fostering network website I think. It really depends on what your working plans are, what age of child you want to foster etc in terms of which agency will be best for you.
Good luck
