If I already foster, how can I transfer to you?

The Fostering Network introduced a protocol which helps foster carers to move between agencies. 

For foster carers with children in placement the process is relatively straightforward with the foster carers, the local authority and the fostering agencies liaising to agree how this is best achieved and the timescales.

However, you will be required to undertake a fresh fostering assessment.

To help this along, with your permission, we would ask your current fostering agency to provide any relevant information required for the new assessment.
