The Main Role of Foster Carers

Foster carers play a crucial role in providing safe, stable homes for children when their birth families cannot. This could be a temporary solution, such as when a parent is unwell, or a long-term need due to instability or neglect at home.

Responsibilities and Fostering Allowance

Foster carers provide daily care, emotional support, and a stable home for young people. A generous fostering allowance ensures that carers can meet the needs of fostered children, covering essentials such as food, clothing, and school supplies.
