Attend a fostering event to find out more

If you want to chat about becoming a foster carer or are ready to apply, talking to the team will help. Come and meet the support team at one of our drop-in events: it’s a chance for you and your family to find out more about fostering and what it really involves day-to-day. We will answer your questions honestly, and you can discuss your situation. 

If you are interested in becoming a foster carer, leave your details with Foster for Greater Manchester and they'll call you back for a chat. Or you can call 0300 303 0321 (9am to 5pm weekdays).
