About The Roots Foundation Wales

We are an award-winning charity supporting children and young people in care, those transitioning to independent living and care leavers. We also support foster and kinship carers. 

In 2017 we featured on a BBC1 DIY SOS & Children in Need special and as a result we have a beautiful centre with 3 semi-independent living flats attached.  Our Transition to Independent Living programme is bespoke and holistic in its approach and aims to teach young people on the cusp of leaving care (16-19 years old) independent living skills to aid a smooth and positive transition into adulthood.

We have a team of youth workers, night staff and volunteers who run groups, activities and clubs throughout term time and school holidays for young people aged 4-25. We hold coffee mornings for carers, a playgroup for young parents and activity groups ranging from crafts club to cookery, youth club and movie nights.

As a result of increased funding and an enthusiastic Board of Trustees we are keen to grow our team so that we can offer more opportunities to even more young people and carers.

A message from our Youth Panel 

“Roots is our home from home, it's a place where we can share our personal experiences and

always be supported. Building good relationships with the staff and other young people is very

important to us. It's important to have staff who are respectful, caring and trustworthy while

being able to have fun and enjoy a bit of banter! We need someone who is honest, responsible

and appreciative of the fact that Roots is like our family.”
