Job Description
Are you ready to be part of something brand new, bold, and brilliantly child centred?
Welcome to EPIC Empathic Professionals Investing in Children.
We are a newly launched Community Interest Company (CIC), founded by a foster parent in the heart of Mid Devon, and dedicated to supporting incredible foster families across the Southwest of England.
At EPIC, we don t just place children; we invest in their futures by investing in you. As a CIC, our profits don t go to shareholders they go directly back into support, training, and making life wonderful for our foster community.
What is a Foster Parent?
A foster parent is someone who opens their home and heart to a child who cannot live with their birth family. Foster parents provide:
- A safe, stable home
- Emotional warmth, understanding, and guidance
- Day to day care such as routines, meals, school support, and activities
- Advocacy for the child s needs with schools, health services, and professionals
- Support during contact with birth family
- A nurturing environment that helps children heal, grow, and thrive
You don t need special qualifications you need empathy, resilience, and space for a child to belong.
EPIC will teach you the rest.
