Do you know somebody who would make a great foster parent?
As a member of our fostering family, we think you’ve got a pretty good idea of what it takes to make a great foster parent and we’d love your help in recruiting even more amazing foster families.
If you’ve discussed fostering with a friend, family, colleague, or with other people you come into regular contact with and you think they’ve got the skills and qualities it takes to foster, then we’d love to learn more.
Referring somebody to us couldn’t be easier, just complete this simple form and we’ll give them a call. As a thank you from us, you’ll receive £1,500 if your friend is approved, plus £1,500 after their first year of fostering.
You can also receive a reward for successfully recommending a respite family to us. You’ll receive £750 once approved and another £750 if they’re still fostering with us after 12 months.
Please note, you're only eligible for the payment if the referred family is new to the community.
With your help, we can provide even more children and young people in care with the love and support they deserve.
What happens next?
If they become an approved foster parent and are new to our community, we will contact you to arrange your reward. Please note, we will not be able to discuss how your referral is progressing in their fostering journey.
Referring-a-Friend is as easy as 1,2,3…
