Membership Support for Foster Families
We all know that raising children can be a costly business, and foster children are no different! Fortunately, there are a number of organisations who offer special discounts for foster carers to use at various locations around the UK. As part of the package following approval as a foster carer with The Foster Care Co-operative, all carers are given membership with The Fostering Network. The Fostering Network provide practical advice and information for all foster carers, a legal helpline, stress support services, and those all important carer discounts!
