Join a community that changes lives.
Fostering is more than opening your home, it’s becoming part of a community that helps children and young people thrive.
At Fostering Rotherham, you’ll never foster alone. From day one, you’ll join a network of experienced foster carers, dedicated social workers, a therapeutic team, teachers and support staff who work together to give local children the stability, care and opportunities they deserve.
As a foster carer, you’ll provide a safe, nurturing home for a child or young person who cannot live with their birth family. In return, we’ll provide you with comprehensive training, local support, a competitive fostering allowance and a community that’s with you every step of the way. What you’ll do
- Provide a safe, stable and caring home for a child or young person.
- Support children to develop, learn and achieve their potential.
- Work alongside social workers, schools and other professionals.
- Help children stay connected to their local community, friends and education whenever possible.
- Be part of a supportive network that shares knowledge, encouragement and experience.
You don’t need previous fostering experience. We’re looking for people who:
- Have a spare bedroom or a room that would be suitable as a bedroom on a temporary basis.
- Are caring, patient and resilient.
- Can provide a stable and nurturing home.
- Are committed to helping children reach their full potential.
- Want to make a lasting difference as part of a supportive community.
- A competitive fostering allowance.
- Comprehensive training before and throughout your fostering journey.
- A dedicated supervising social worker.
- Local support and advice.
- Access to local support groups, events and experienced foster carers.
- The opportunity to make a real difference to the lives of local children.
When you foster with Fostering Rotherham, you’re not just changing a child’s life, you become part of a community that supports children, families and each other. Find out more today.
