Our Purpose
As a long-standing Welsh charity, St David’s Children Society believes every child in Wales should have a safe and loving home. In the delivery of our therapeutic adoption, fostering, training and consultancy services we create our own unique connections which supports permanency in its widest context across Wales. Our integrated services give us the distinct ability to deliver timely, innovative best practice. These services are shaped by emerging insights and trends, including the impact of trauma, neurodivergence, genetic uncertainty, and substance misuse-related foetal anomalies.
Grounded in compassion and expertise we build bonds that enable lasting relationships, creating brighter and more secure futures for children. As a charity, we continually reinvest monies in our services, forming a skilled and experienced team who are equipped to deliver exceptional support for children, families, and professionals. Our work extends to the inclusion of mental health & wellbeing, education, and physical health, meaning we can provide holistic guidance and support.
For those interested in adoption and fostering through a charity, we are a trusted choice. In all that we do, St David’s centres on collaboration, excellence, and compassion, championing the rights of every child to feel safe, secure, and nurtured throughout their lives.
Achieving our purpose
