Leicestershire County Council is hoping to encourage a new generation of foster carers who can step into a hugely-rewarding role and offer loving homes to vulnerable children and young people.

An informal information evening is being held on Thursday, 22 June from 6.15pm - 8pm at County Hall in Glenfield, Leicestershire LE3 8RA.

The event will provide an opportunity for people to meet and talk to carers, as well as the county council’s fostering team.
 

 

We support carers from the beginning and encourage ongoing training throughout the process. Many people think about fostering and have many questions so, at the event, the team will provide all the support and information needed, no matter how far people have travelled along the fostering journey.
