Fostering information sessions

We hold regular in-person fostering information sessions that last around 40 minutes. 

During them you'll: 

• hear how fostering helps young people
• talk to experienced foster carers and our support staff
• learn what's needed to become a foster carer from our social workers
• get an insight into what it's like to be a Southwark Council foster carer
• be able to ask questions
