As an existing FCA carer you can utilise a number of portals and tools to access support.
No-one can provide you with a better insight into what it’s like to foster than someone who’s done it before. That’s one of the reasons we set up Carer Connect.
Carer Connect is an online forum just for FCA carers. It gives you free and instant access to information and advice right when you need it – day or night, 365 days a year. It’s easy to use and jam-packed with all the support you need.
“There’s plenty of information and advice to be found on there and it’s great to have extra support at hand right when I need it.”
“Carer Connect is really useful. It helps me to connect with my local fostering community!”
Once you’re approved as a foster carer with us, you’ll be sent your login details for Carer Connect. This means you’ll be able to access to it right away.
