How are allowances calculated?
Our fortnightly allowance varies based on the child’s age, specific needs, the number of children in your care, and the type of fostering placement.
Fostering is one of the most rewarding roles you can do, and our fostering allowance is designed to fully support you on this journey. The allowance covers essential costs like household bills, clothing, and other necessary expenses while also recognising the dedication and hard work you do.
To show our appreciation, we provide an annual allowance increase to give our carers added financial security, comfort, and peace of mind.
