The benefits of transferring to Beacon Fostering

At Beacon Fostering, we understand that there are many different reasons why a foster carer may wish to transfer from one agency to another.

We are keen to meet people dedicated to providing a home to a child or young person in need. If you’re an approved foster carer with experience and looking for a new agency, we can help.

Our family-first ethos is at the heart of our operation, which sees us put foster parents and the children and young people in their care as a priority. If you’re looking to transfer to a leading agency in the northwest, we work with and support carers in Manchester, Liverpool, Lancashire and Cumbria. Read on to discover the advantages of choosing our agency.

General support

We understand that foster carers need seamless support, so we are on call for you 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We also offer support groups for foster carers, birth children and foster children, as well as access to a nurturing network and foster care community.

Beacon Therapeutic Support

Our team believe support is at the core of successful foster child placement and the development of foster carers. Working with us, you’ll receive therapeutic support that includes additional social worker visits, access to therapists, increased allowances and foster care payments, extra respite when you require it and enhanced training to help you provide the best level of foster care possible.

Local support

Through our strong ties with northwest local authorities, we also provide further support. Local assistance includes social workers and training venues that are based in your area, but also local activities for children and young people in foster care and carers. We also provide local events called “Meet the Managers”.

Reward incentives

All our foster carers are given clear information about all payments and financial expectations related to receiving the Fostering Allowance.

While we understand that providing foster care often has a vocational element, we believe carers must be paid properly and taken care of well, so they can perform their crucial roles effectively. As a result, we offer those who work with us several reward incentives. These include annual holiday contribution, training development and completion and experience and long service.

The reward element of our service is competitive and is designed to reflect the dedication and hard work that our foster carers deliver to the young people and children they look after in their homes. Our team is always happy to discuss possible financial packages for carers who choose to transfer to us with children to guarantee that there is never any shortfall in the continued package for financial support.
