Curious about fostering? Join the Fostering West Sussex team for Chai and Chat!

Have you ever thought about fostering or wondered what it involves? Why not come along to our informal Chai and Chat session and meet a member of the friendly Fostering West Sussex team?

📍 Langley Green Youth Centre
📅 Wednesday 30 September
⏰ 8:30am to 10:30am (after school drop-off!)

This relaxed drop-in session is for anyone interested in learning more about becoming a foster carer or supported lodgings host (for young people aged 16+). There is no obligation, just the opportunity to ask questions and find out how you could make a difference to a child's life.

There will be free cake and refreshments!

We are particularly keen to hear from members of the Muslim community, as we currently have 97 Muslim children we care for who need families who can support their faith, culture and identity.

Foster Carers with West Sussex County Council receive comprehensive training, ongoing support and payments of up to £33,415 per year for each child. Find out more at: https://fosteringwestsussex.org.uk/muslim-fostering/
