Foster training

Five Rivers Ireland was established in 2002. It is the first independent fostering agency to operate in the Republic of Ireland.
Over the years we have grown from a small staff team of two to a team of 28. The head office is based in Dublin. However we provide foster care to children across the country and have foster families in most counties.
In 2011 we opened an office in Cork to support our families in the Munster Region. Five Rivers Ireland provides care to a wide range of children of all ages and cultures and with a variety of different needs.
