At Aspris Fostering Services, we make it easy for existing foster carers to transfer to our agency. We follow national guidelines and are very experienced in helping people to move over to us.
It starts with a simple phone call from yourself, we will then arrange a home visit in order to decide what is the best option for you and your family. If you do not have any children on placement, the process is very straightforward and all you need to do is give your current provider 28 days written notice.
If you already have children on placement
If you already have children placed with you, don’t worry, the process is still easy and the national transfer guidance is designed to cope with this situation.
You just need to inform your existing agency of your plans to move as soon as possible. The Local Authority for the supported children will arrange a meeting to confirm we can meet the needs of the children and will also agree transfer timescales. We will attend this meeting with you and support you throughout the whole process.
