November is National Care Leavers’ Month. Run by Become, it's a time to celebrate care leavers and spotlight the challenges they face in the care system. 💛

As part of NCLM, we’re running from 17 - 23 November, to raise awareness of why it’s so important people share their care experience on their UCAS applications. It’s a simple step that can unlock powerful support - because care experience should never be a barrier to higher education. ✅

What’s happening during the week? 💡

• We’ll be sharing resources, stories, and expert advice on how ticking the box can open doors to funding, guidance, and tailored support.
• On 17 November, join our Tick the Box webinar featuring care experienced voices and expert panellists breaking down the UCAS process and available support.

How can you get involved? 🤔

• If you're care experienced, a foster carer or kinship carer: attend the webinar and follow us for tips and tools to support your journey to uni or college.
• If you're a fostering service, charity or organisation: share our posts and graphics to help spread the word far and wide!

Find our graphics and sign up to the webinar here: https://bit.ly/47pK2Ix

Let’s make sure every care experienced person applying to college or uni knows the importance of ticking the box! 🙌

Our Story

Xcel 2000 is an independent fostering organisation, founded in 2000, covering Kent, London, Essex and Hertfordshire.

We are the main provider for fostering services for Kent & Medway, a preferred provider to the eastern region local authorities and part of the fostering framework for Hertfordshire, Croydon and Sutton. We are an active member of local and national forums which ensures that we have an influence in guaranteeing and maintaining best practice.

Our small, friendly team of foster carers, social workers and office staff work together to support young people in care. We aim to give them the best possible opportunities and experiences in safe, stable and supportive families. Since the organisation was formed in 2000, our families have fostered over 1000 children. Xcel 2000 have one of the highest number of looked after children living with their foster families long term or permanently - nearly 80%, providing stability and reassurance to both the young people and to our amazing, close knit team of foster parents.

Many factors contribute to our successes, including our excellent training and support, weekly foster parent meet ups, careful matching processes and a close knit team. We pride ourselves on being a small organisation that really cares, where every child really matters and every foster parent is valued and respected. The close working relationship that we have with the families who foster for us is paramount. We know each of our foster parents personally and are aware of how every young person is progressing.
