Statement of Purpose
Who can become a
foster carer?
The main requirements to foster a child are:
- Aged over 21 years (no upper age limit)
- Have a spare bedroom
- Have the legal right to work in the UK
You do not need any experience or qualifications, as full training is given – but it’s important to be passionate about wanting to make a difference to children’s lives.
There are also no requirements regarding background or family circumstances. Foster parents can be single, gay, married or straight and we encourage applicants from all ethnic backgrounds to join our fostering team.
Speak to us today if you have any questions.
Generous payments
We offer a fostering allowance of up to £1,904 (tax free) per month, per child, plus holiday and birthday payments, paid respite, and many other benefits.
Full support package
You'll be connected to the support you need 24/7, ranging from a dedicated social worker, regular support groups and social events, and an out of hours service.
Specialist training
We offer full, personalised training - online and in-person - from teaching the basics to advanced courses, to help you develop your skills as a foster parent.
Excellent outcomes
With all offices rated 'Outstanding' or 'Good' by Ofsted, we pride ourselves on quality and being a fostering agency families and children can rely on.
