Fostering information events
Online and face-to-face information events
People often say it took them a few years from first thinking about fostering to taking the next step to apply to become a foster carer. It is such an important decision.
We offer regular information sessions so you can find out all the accurate, up-to-date information you need, including the various types of fostering, the processes, support, training, and payments.
You can join an online session at lunchtime or in the evening using your smartphone or tablet from the comfort of your own home - or our team can give you a call at a time that suits you for an initial chat. Just send us your contact details via our ENQUIRY FORM.
We also visit locations across East Sussex. Staff and Recruitment Ambassadors are there to chat and answer your questions.
