Becoming a foster carer will be life changing, our foster carers would say that it is possibly the most rewarding experience that they have had, but it can also have its challenges, but we are there to support you.
The Fostering Team consists of A Team Manager, Supervising Social Workers and a Family Resource worker. All fostering families are allocated a supervising social worker who will help and support carers to provide a high level of care to any child or young person they are caring for. You will receive regular visits and supervision to ensure you are fully supported. This will include support for ongoing learning to enhance knowledge and skills to support children in your caring for.
Within the fostering team there is a dedicated duty worker who manages all referrals. They are also the point of contact if your worker is off or unavailable.
