About us
We are Polaris, one of the UK’s largest leading communities of children’s service providers.
Within the community, we have independent fostering and adoption agencies who have been passionately improving the lives of young people for over 30 years, as well as leaving care services, residential children’s care providers, education provisions and bespoke children’s services contracts. Our nurturing community works collectively to support the very best outcomes for each and every child in our care. We’re ambitious for our children and young people, families and staff, and believe in their futures.
Since 2014 we have provided social work services to the Ministry of Defence in Germany and in 2019 we expanded our overseas work with the British military and associated civilian personnel and their families to across Europe, Canada, Kenya, Belize, the United States of America and Saudi Arabia. From July 2020 we expanded our services to include the British Forces Social Work Service in Cyprus and the South Atlantic Islands.
