Making a decision that matters
Becoming a foster carer is not a decision that should be taken lightly. Reading up on what’s included in the process is recommended as well as talking to the people directly involved in the day-to-day business of foster care. There’s nothing quite like browsing carers stories and accounts of their experiences in this most worthy career to give you a feel for what it’s all about.
Being aware of all the facts is a great start. If you attend one of our weekly drop-ins to talk to the staff about what’s involved you’ll experience the warm and friendly atmosphere at the local office thanks to Faversham’s highly skilled team. This means that your journey towards becoming a foster carer gets off to the best possible start.
