Are we lookingfor you?
Could you foster a young person from the Bath andNorth East Somerset area?
We are looking for people with child care experience and the time and energy to care for young people aged11 and over.
Carers receive an excellent support and training package, as well as a competitive allowance - those caring for older teenagers are likely to receive up to £400 per week.
“Becoming a foster carer has been a huge challenge,but is immensely rewarding and satisfying in ways thatI hadn’t anticipated”
