Compass Community is an independent fostering agency and children’s residential care provider. Operating across much of England and Wales, the business is now one of the largest in the sector.
August created Compass Community by bringing together several well-established, independent fostering agencies, combining a wealth of experience and specialist local knowledge under one brand and one management team.
Under August’s ownership, Compass became the third largest independent fostering agency in the UK, with more than 1,000 fostering placements and 12 residential homes. August realised the investment in 2017, via an exit to Graphite Capital.
