How can I find out more about fostering?
Our online and in-person information events are a great opportunity for you to ask questions and chat with our foster carers and friendly fostering team.
We’ll talk you through the fostering process, different types of fostering, the support available, fostering allowances and fees and much more. There is no pressure or commitment. Just honest and helpful advice.
You can attend one of our online events or come along and meet the team when they are out and about across Cambridgeshire.
If you have any questions about our events, please call us on 0800 052 0078 or email fostering@cambridgeshire.gov.uk.
