During this one hour session, you’ll learn about the role of a foster carer and the different types of foster care placements, the application process, allowance, training and support available to our foster carers here in Reading, plus so much more.

These online sessions will be hosted via Microsoft Teams, so please register your interest by emailing us at foster@brighterfuturesforchildren.org and we’ll send the joining link.

One of our foster carers will be joining too so you can ask them directly about their experiences – their stories are so inspiring and often very moving.

Grab a cuppa and come and learn about inviting a Reading child or young person into your family.

If you’re unable to attend this one, we have sessions every month at varying times to suit everybody, so check other sessions coming up.

You can also register your interest in fostering with us via our enquiry form.
