Introduction to fostering (online)

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, and so much more. These online sessions will be hosted via Microsoft Teams, so register your interest below and we'll send details of how to join on the night. One of our foster carers will be there so you can ask them directly about their experiences.

Grab a cuppa and come and learn about the rewarding role of a foster carer!

Meet our foster carers (online)

Find out what it’s really like to foster. One of our foster carers will join us for an informal chat about fostering, sharing their experience and story of becoming a foster carer.

This is an online session where you can ask our carers anything you want to know about fostering. Previous questions have been things like:

  • What was your first night of fostering like?
  • What do you do about going on holiday?
  • Do you have your own children? How do they feel about having another child living with them?

No question is a silly question, so please do join us for an open, honest discussion. Email us for the link foster@brighterfuturesforchildren.org

Don’t forget your tea and biscuits!
