Being a foster carer can be an emotionally and physically demanding job, but it can be an extremely rewarding experience to know that you have made a vital difference to a child’s life.

Even more rewarding is:

• Helping to reunite a child or young person with their family.
• The satisfaction of seeing a child develop and achieve their full potential.
• Knowing that you could be helping protect a child from harm.
• Providing children with a long term placement and securing their permanency with a trusted person who cares for them.
