You’d love to foster and make a difference, but…
Your current circumstances are not quite ready, you’re moving house soon, your children are doing their exams this year and you don’t want to rock the boat. There are many reasons why you don’t feel ready to foster yet, but there are other ways you could help.
Why not become fostering confident in the meantime?
It’s a big decision to become a foster carer and doing some research is wise, but make sure you head to the right place. You could attend an online fostering information session or give East Sussex County Council a call for an informal, initial chat.
They know that fostering needs to fit in with family life and work commitments, and there are several types of fostering to suit different situations.
People choose to foster with East Sussex County Council because:
• Their foster carers are supported and respected
• They offer more flexibility than you might realise
• Established, experienced local team
• Competitive weekly pay
• Ongoing training and development
• Local support network
• They have an amazing fostering community
