Choosing to foster we know is a huge commitment and often comes with many challenges that sit alongside immeasurable emotional rewards.
At Fostering North Yorkshire we are looking for incredible individuals or couples, who might be able to open their home and offer to support some of
our most challenging young people as a specialist foster carer.
Specialist caring is a full time role but a specialist carer with a child aged 11-15 in placement would receive fees and allowances totalling over £790 per week, equivalent to £41,000 annually.
At Fostering North Yorkshire we are looking for people with significant experience of working with or caring for young people with complex needs to join our well established and supportive team of foster carers. The difference a foster carer can make in their lives is immeasurable and you will truly be making a difference to a local young person in a real way, helping them to achieve all they can in life and offering the consistency and security they may never have had.
We aim to offer homes as locally as possible within North Yorkshire as we believe keeping these young people local helps them on many levels including maintaining bonds with their extended family, friends and communities along with supporting their mental health to stay in more familiar areas
