About Fair Ways

Fair Ways is a charity. We strive to make a difference through the provision of passionate care, support and education that children and adults in care deserve.

Our Story

Fairways Care (UK) Ltd was established in 2002, having previously been the fostering subsidiary of Cornerstone Service Support Ltd. From the outset, the company sought to deal with the most difficult and vulnerable children, to provide stable placements and provide world-class care and support.

In July 2015, Fairways Care (UK) Ltd was bought by Fair Ways Foundation charity.

In September 2021, Fairways Care (UK) Ltd registered as Fair Ways Community Benefit Society, a charity company, regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

Today, the organisation trades under the brand name, Fair Ways. It continues as a successful business with the innovation, flexibility and creativity of the private sector, merged with the ethics and values of a charity.

Our Impact

From humble beginnings, a single office and 15 dedicated staff, today Fair Ways employs over 350 staff across a broad range of children's services.

Fair Ways delivers a comprehensive range of services to children and young people. These include Residential services, Education services, Healthcare services and Family Services that are described in more detail on this website.

Our service relies on having the best possible staff team. We invest hugely in staff training, development, welfare and wellbeing.

We believe that by retaining well paid, well trained and well-supported staff, we will become one of the leading providers of care services in the UK.
