Fostering Information Sessions

Foster carers look after children or young people who cannot live with their own families. This could be due to reasons that include illness, relationship breakdown or concerns about their welfare.

In March 2020, there were 57,380 children in England living with foster families. These families provide children and young people with a safe and nurturing family environment, caring for them as though they were their own children.

In Slough we have a fantastic team of foster carers but we always have a need for more!

Is this something that interests you?

Do you have space in your home and space in your heart to take in a child in need, either in the short-term or long-term?

If so then we’d love to hear from you so join us at one of our fostering information sessions to find out more. Our sessions for the year are on:

• Tuesday 22 June at 10am
• Thursday 24 June at 5.30pm
• Tuesday 27 July at 10am
• Thursday 29 July at 5.30pm
• Tuesday 28 September at 10am
• Thursday 30 September at 5.30pm
• Tuesday 26 October at 10am
• Thursday 28 October at 5.30pm
• Tuesday 23 November at 10am
• Thursday 25 November at 5.30pm

At the moment these will be online but as restrictions ease then we may be able to hold them in person. To book your place, or for further information, just email foster@sloughchildrenfirst.co.uk

We look forward to seeing you!
