FosterTalk is a not-for-profit organization in the United Kingdom that supports foster carers, social workers, and sector specialists through memberships, training, and allegations support. Based in Birmingham, it operates to ensure foster carers receive appropriate guidance and safeguarding from pre-approval through to retirement, collaborating with local authorities, fostering agencies, and individual carers to improve care for children. The group positions itself within the Individual and Family Services sector, focusing on strengthening the support framework around foster care to influence outcomes for cared-for children across the UK. The organization emphasizes the central role of the child in foster care and relies on a team with social work and sector expertise to deliver services and resources for carers. A recent development noted is the public release of findings from a 2022 Cost of Living Crisis survey conducted by FosterTalk and related to its broader activity in supporting carers and informing policy discussions.
