Find out about fostering event

Find out about being a foster carer at our information evening at County Hall on Thursday (23 June)

An information evening will be held on Thursday (June 23) for anyone who wants to find out more about becoming a foster carer.

The informal event will be held from 6.15-8pm at County Hall in Glenfield and will provide an opportunity for people to chat with carers, as well as the council’s fostering team.

Every year, foster carers retire or their circumstances change, so the county council is always actively looking for new people to come forward.

To find out more, call 0116 305 0505 or drop us an email fostering@leics.gov.uk
