Community driven, Culturally Centred
Giving a child the best opportunity to reach their full potential in life is the greatest gift. When a whole community comes together to make that opportunity a reality for every child, great change can be achieved.

Becoming a Foster Family
If you choose to become a Foster Carer with our service, you won’t be working alone in your journey. We strongly believe that every child should be provided with a safe, nurturing and positive environment where they are comfortable with themselves, feel culturally safe and supported by the carer.
Being a Foster Family is one of the most challenging yet rewarding things you’ll ever do. We work collaboratively with you to ensure the best outcomes for the foster child and their foster family.
Professional Services
Kwaba Bidi works collaboratively with other service organisations across
the South West region through our Casework Support Scheme
and assisting partners of the South West Support Network.
