You can make a real difference to a child in Bedford Borough if you foster.
Fostering is when children who aren’t able to live with their birth families are placed in a safe and loving family home on a temporary basis.
You'll find out about the types of fostering, what it involves and how to start the assessment process. We offer training, support and a competitive allowance for the child and a fee for you.
If you're already a foster carer, find out the benefits in transferring to us at Bedford Borough Council.
