This is a home based role, caring for vulnerable children or young people who will live with you within your home. You will need to have at least 1 permanently available spare bedroom to be considered. Every day children all over the UK need to leave their families and their homes for a variety of reasons. Most often this is due to neglect and abuse but there are many other reasons children may need to be cared for. For these vulnerable children and young people, being placed within families that are stable, warm and welcoming is vital. They often come to their foster homes scared and anxious with very little with them, sometimes with nothing but the clothes they are wearing. At F5 Foster Care, we recruit, assess and train potential Foster Carers so that they are able to provide the right kind of support and security to these children.
