Meet the Team
We would like to invite you to an information session (online) to find out more. We would then like a (virtual) tour of your home to check your ID and the suitability of your home.
Background Checks
We will give you some forms to complete to undertake background checks.
Training
Skills to Foster training involves six sessions where we discuss the foster carer’s role, the children, working together, safety, behaviour and letting go. The training will help you to make an informed decision about whether fostering is right for you.
Assessment & Panel
The social worker will visit you at least six times to get to know you. Your social worker will present their report to the panel. You can also attend.
