Short Term Break Fostering Scheme

Carers Wanted

We believe that everyone deserves a break – a weekend away to recharge the batteries or perhaps a holiday for rest and relaxation.

That’s why Foster Care Services offer all their full time carers 14 days annual leave per year. To enable this we operate a Short Term Break scheme of dedicated foster carers to provide this service.

Foster Care Services are really committed to ensuring that Short Term Breaks are a very positive and productive experience for the children and carers alike. We work as a team, with communication and partnership at the heart of our efforts.

The busy periods for Short Term Breaks are usually around the school holidays.

We provide a financial package commensurate with your availability/bookings. Ongoing training and support is provided.

Our Short Term Break Carers can be:

  • experienced foster carers who wish to move away from full time fostering but still want to be involved;

  • people who have worked with children in other settings such as teachers, support or youth workers; or

  • people who are considering fostering as a career change.

This is a rewarding task. If you feel you have the space, energy and commitment to join our team of foster carers, please complete the on line information form and one of our team will contact you.

If you require more information please telephone the number below or complete our contact form.
