Foster homes needed
WITH a rise in the number of children coming into care in Northern Ireland, HSC Trusts are urging more caring people to come forward in 2013 to provide vulnerable children with foster homes.
There is particular need for more foster families across the province for children aged seven to 12, both on a short and long term basis.
All children have a right to grow up in safe, secure and caring family where they are nurtured and developed. Fostering provides children who cannot live at home with alternative care where they can benefit from a nurturing home life for as long as they need it.
Applications will be considered irrespective of sexual orientation or religious / ethnic background.
HSC foster carers receive financial allowances, ongoing learning and development opportunities, and 24/7 social work support.
If you feel you could make a difference and help one child through a difficult time in their lives contact Northern Trust Recruitment and Initial Assessment Team on 0300 123 11 55 or call 0800 0720 137 or visit www.adoptionandfostering.hscni.net for more information.
