Littleacornsfostering.com explains the fostering allowance you get
when you become a carer.
Find out what benefits you get when undertaking this career for the first time.
Being a foster carer is primarily about taking the best possible care of the children,
however, there are allowances as you would need to be available all the time for
them to give them this care. Before you decide to become one, it would be a good
idea to understand what allowances are involved before making the decision to do
this as a full time occupation.
Many people do not see this as a career because giving children the best possible
start in life or giving disadvantaged children a fresh start is something more
rewarding. One of the first steps that you would need to make would be to find out
what kind of money you would be entitled to in order to make sure that it is a viable
option for you. Independent agencies are seen to be the most reliable source of
information on this as they give the most honest and open advice possible,
especially if you speak to one that is highly regarded in this particular industry.
Little Acorns Fostering are dedicated to making sure they place each child into a
stable environment. they have a wealth of information which is made available to all
of their customers, both new and existing. By going through them you could be given
the starting entitlement of £345 per week for each child which is given to
compensate for food, clothing and travel among other things. This is given to each
carer to make sure that they are definitely able to care for the children in a suitable
environment and give them the best upbringing.
Registered Manager Cheryl Jillions says: “We understand that caring for children
cannot be done on a voluntary basis because of everything that needs to be brought
for them like food and clothes. It is often considered that caring for a child in the
fostering system is more expensive than caring for your birth child. This is why we,
as an independent agency give the best possible rates so that you can do this
comfortably on a full time basis and giving the care a child needs and when they
need it. helping a child of any age through a difficult time is an immensely rewarding
experience and one which we are glad to help all of our carers with. We are on hand
at any time of the day or night for any kind of help or advice.”
