Find out about fostering session with Leicestershire County Council

Join Leicestershire County Council’s fostering team and our foster carers to learn more about how fostering can fit into your and your family’s life.

Topics of conversation will include:

• the different types of fostering
• the fostering application process
• available payments and allowances
• our ‘consistent and reliable’ (Ofsted, 2024) support and guidance

Questions from attendees are welcomed throughout the information session.

All our information events are an informal step of the process, and attendees are not entered into the formal application process until (and if) they choose to proceed.
