  • Reflective foster carers

Foster Wales Powys are looking for active, dynamic carers who are willing to work with the service to provide a secure home environment for a young person who needs short term emergency or respite foster care. This type of placement provides care for young people who need an immediate placement upon entry to foster care or following a breakdown of a previous arrangement.

you will need:

  • significant experience of working directly with or caring for young people who present a range of behaviours
  • to be open-minded and have the commitment to make a difference to a young person’s life
  • patience, time and commitment to meet the individual needs of the child young person
  • the ability to support young people through times of transition and change

what will you receive in return?

  • You will be paid a weekly fee of £380 plus fostering allowances when you have a child in placement
  • You will have the support of a dedicated fostering social worker and family support worker.
  • You will have the support of a team of professionals who are working with the young person in your care and who can offer you one to one advice and support.
  • You will have access to a specialist training programme, some of which will start during your assessment period.
  • When the office is closed, you will have access to 24-hour support via the foster care support line and emergency duty team.
