Caerphilly County Borough Council is encouraging residents who may have time to spare or space in their home to consider making a vital difference to a child’s life by becoming a foster carer. Fostering is the chance to make an important di erence to a child’s life. All types of families from all kinds of backgrounds can foster a child or group of children. The council is currently looking for more foster carers for children of all ages in Caerphilly county borough, who would be willing to help give them the very best start in life. Cabinet Member for Social Care and Wellbeing, Cllr Carl Cuss said, “Foster carers really do make a huge di erence to the lives of children and young people in their care. It can be extremely rewarding and right from the outset, carers are fully supported by our dedicated team. I would encourage anyone who may be interested in becoming a foster carer to get in touch with our team to nd out more about how they can change a child’s life – and in turn, enrich their own.” One of the council’s existing foster carers agrees, adding: “Being a foster carer is the most rewarding job I’ve had. I am in awe of every child that has walked into my home; their ability to adapt and begin to grow is unbelievable. Each child brings their own challenges and rewards, and when you accept them and their experiences, the rewards for both them and you are so heart-warming.” There are various opportunities for foster carers to attend training courses, enabling them to learn and share good practice, discuss issues they may have and build skills and condence, while meeting and socialising with other carers and professionals. The council also provides fees to foster carers for the vital work they carry out. Currently the council is considering implementing a revised fee structure, which if implemented, would bring Caerphilly more in line with other local authorities across South Wales. It is hoped this improved fee structure would also assist the council in recruiting more foster carers in future. One of the young people currently in the council’s care and seeking a foster placement said, “I loved being in my last foster home – it literally made my day every day. It can be very hard for a girl my age, and I would really love to have a foster home and be able to stay with someone who’s going to look after me until I’m an adult.” To contact Caerphilly County Borough Council’s fostering team, please call 0800 587 5 64 Text ‘foster’ to 78866 or visit www.caerphilly.gov.uk/fostering
