Your FAQ

Question: How will I know if my home is suitable for provide foster care/supportive lodgings?

Answer: An initial risk assessment of the property will identify any areas of concern. You have a responsibility to maintain your home to a high standard to ensure the health and safety of those placed with you (eg maintenance of gas appliances every 12 months by a CORGI registered worker, safety of electrical appliances and ensuring smoke detectors are fitted and operational).
