Financial support

Our competitive financial package will help with the cost of looking after your foster child. This is made up of your fostering allowance and fee.

All foster carers receive an allowance to cover costs involved in caring for a child, such as food, clothing, travel, household expenses and pocket money. The amount you receive is based on how many children you look after, and their age. Extra fostering allowances are paid at Christmas and in the summer to support you.

With a Fostering fee you receive financial support based on:

• your skills
• your knowledge and experience
• your ability to meet the needs to the child you foster

For more information, contact us and we can work out how much you could receive. Get in touch and we can support you through this process.
