Be involved!

We offer opportunities to our foster carers who are keen to get more involved.

Suffolk foster carers can share their fostering experience and develop their own skills. Some of these opportunities attract an additional fee.

As a Suffolk foster carer you can:

  • Become a Fostering Ambassador: we have several carers who work with the recruitment team and assist at public events to promote fostering
  • Receive a thank you payment of £500* if you introduce someone who goes on to be approved as a Suffolk Foster Carer
  • Share your experiences: Would you like to encourage others to foster? Find out more about how you can be involved in our recruitment foster@suffolk.gov.uk
  • Support and mentor other carers individually or take part in running support groups.
  • Volunteer for the Suffolk Foster Carer Association
