Brighton Fostering Allowance and Benefits

At Foster Care Associates Brighton, we believe foster parents should be rewarded for their hard work in changing children’s lives. That’s why we offer an allowance that takes into consideration the demands and cost of foster care. In addition, as a foster parent, you will receive additional benefits, including tax exemption on the first £10,000 you earn per year and additional tax breaks.
