Thinking about Fostering?
Talk to us first to change a child's life
Could you make a real difference to the lives of children in our local area?
Foster Carers provide safe, stable homes for some of the most vulnerable children and young people in our society, with the full support of Southend-on-Sea City Council.
A Foster Carer helps children reach their full potential by supporting their educational, social, emotional and health needs.
Fostering is both challenging and hugely rewarding. The most important reward is that you make a difference to a child who really needs it.
Financially, you will receive a fostering fee and a generous allowance for each child in placement.
