Do you have a spare bedroom in your home for a child? Are you currently working or volunteering with people with additional needs, and perhaps are looking for a change of career or get a better work/life balance?

We are looking for people with specialist skills and experience who may be interested in fostering children with additional needs or medical issues.

Have you thought about becoming a fostering family for a child in need?

Role:

We are looking for caring, patient and resilient people, to care for children and young people that are not able to live with their own families for a period of time. The child will live in your home as part of your family whilst you work as part of a team to support them through a difficult time of their life.

Essential:

a spare bedroom which can comfortably fit (as a minimum) a single bed, wardrobe, and chest of drawers

Experience:

Full training is provided but any previous experience of being a parent, childminder, foster carer, or working with children or vulnerable adults can be beneficial. If you have limited experience don’t rule yourself out, come and talk to us.

Remuneration:

You do not get a salary as a foster care but a weekly allowance is paid when you have a child or young person living with you. This is to cover the costs of caring for a child e.g. food, clothing, pocket money etc.
Allowance range - up to £850 per week
Additional grants and allowances e.g. festival allowance and child summer holiday grant
Allowances will also increase with your level of experience.

Other Benefits:

Initial and regular, ongoing training to support your role as a foster carer

support groups/social meetings for foster carers locally to get to know each other
