Long term fostering
There are many different types of fostering but it looks like long-term foster caring may suit you.
What is long-term fostering?
It’s when you foster a child on a long term basis. The child will be between 0–18 years of age, and you could foster them for a few years, or usually until they becomes independent.
It’s a brilliant way to really make an impact on a local child and help them to grow up and reach their potential. A happy and stable home means a child has the basics they need to reach their potential and contribute to their community.
Can I be a long-term foster carer?
Yes! There’s no ‘typical’ foster carer all sorts of people make great foster carers.
