Now Recruiting: Foster Carers – Open Your Home, Change a Life!
Are you ready to make a real difference in a child’s life? Do you have a spare room, a big heart, and the resilience to help a child feel safe and supported?
Become a Foster Carer with WellCare Fostering Services — where every home has the power to heal, and every carer is part of a vibrant, supportive community.
What Does a Foster Carer Do?
Foster carers provide a stable, caring home for children and young people who are unable to live with their birth families. This can be short-term, long-term, emergency, or respite care — and you choose what suits your lifestyle.
You’ll be more than just a carer — you’ll be a role model, a mentor, and sometimes, a life-changer.
Who Can Foster?
You don’t need to be married, own your home, or have children of your own. What matters is your ability to provide a loving and secure environment. You’ll need to:
- Be at least 21 years old
- Have a spare bedroom
- Be a UK resident or have indefinite leave to remain
- Be willing to undergo background checks, including an enhanced DBS check, a health assessment, and a home study assessment
- Commit to ongoing training and support
Flexible Allowances & Pay
We know your time and care matter. That’s why we offer flexible, competitive rates, depending on the needs of the child.
