We run regular information sessions to help you ensure you have all the information you need - come along to our next one to find out more.
Attending an Information Session is one of the next steps on your journey to becoming a foster carer. Attendance isn’t mandatory, but it provides great insight into the role, and is your opportunity to find out more and ask any questions you may have before you have an initial visit to your home from our fostering teams.
We run our information sessions virtually and in-person to enable you maximum choice and flexibility.
These 60 minute live sessions are run remotely and do require you to book your place.
Next session: Wednesday 21st May 2026 at 6pm
***Book Now***
To sign up to attend, please complete the form below and a member of our team will confirm your place and send you a link to access the session.
To get the most from the session, you will need a PC, laptop, tablet or iPad, but if you don’t have one of these, you can use a Smartphone.
Our pop- up events are a perfect way to find out more about fostering in an informal way. We run these sessions regularly at places like parks, coffee shops and family events across Cheshire and Merseyside.
