Full Job Description
Become a foster carer with Action for Children and we’ll support you every step of the way with a professional fee up to £750 a week, excellent training and 24/7 support.
Who can foster?
Almost anyone can foster. If you are 25 or over, are a permanent resident in the UK and have a spare room, the chances are you can be a foster carer.
Action for Children foster parents come from all walks of life - caring people who can give a child in need their time, attention, affection and a safe, nurturing place to call home.
Why choose Action for Children?
We recognise that being a foster parent is a huge commitment. It’s a vocation and a job beyond the 9-5, and it’s life changing. We value our foster parents and look after them so that they can look after the children who need them.
As an Action for Children foster parent, we will support you with;
- A professional fee up to £750 a week
- We'll be there for you with 24/7 support
- Small case loads - our foster family to Supervising Social worker ratio is 6:1
- 28 days earned leave
- Quality training all year round
You might not have all the experience needed, but we’ll equip you with the skills, knowledge, and confidence needed to provide a loving and safe home for a child in need.
Could you foster?
Becoming a foster parent is a big decision – and life changing for you and the young people that need support but we promise to be there with you every step of the way. Think about coming to join us - it will change your life.
We are a Charitable Organisation who have small communities of foster families all over Scotland. Here’s what some of foster carers and young people had to say…
“Action for Children go the extra mile. Every single person we encountered when becoming a foster carer has been really friendly and helpful.” Action for Children Foster Parent
“Being with my foster carers has changed my life. They have done so much for me but the best thing was that they helped me believe in myself.” - Young person
“From the beginning, fostering with Action for Children felt like a family and that we were part of something special.” - Action for Children Foster Parent
