Connect & Inform

Supporting, informing and connecting carers

An important part of our role as the independent peak body for foster and kinship carers is making sure carers feel supported, informed and connected at every stage of their caring journey.

We provide accessible, up-to-date information to help carers navigate complex systems, understand their rights, and access available support. We also bring carers together through peer networks, events and forums where experiences can be shared and practical advice can be exchanged.

By combining trusted information with meaningful opportunities for connection, we help reduce isolation, strengthen carers’ confidence and build a more informed and supported carer community.
