Futures for Children was established in 1999 by Harry Bettice and Nick
Barnsby. Both Harry and Nick came to the company through professional social
work and individual experience of fostering within their own families.
The first office was opened in Kent in February 1999 where the administrative
headquarters remains. Since that time, a number of regional offices have been
opened across the country to provide local services for children and carers.
The structure of establishing regional offices means that carers have the
benefit of being part of a large and established organisation, whilst
identifying with a local office near to their home where staff know them and
the children they have in placement.
Looked After Children represent the most disadvantaged and vulnerable members
of our community. At Futures for Children it is our objective to provide the
support and conditions in which these most vulnerable young people can thrive
and achieve a positive outcome from their time spent in foster care. There is
much work to be done to redress the disadvantages these children have
experienced and little time to do this before they become independent young
adults.
