Short Break carers needed NOW!

Can you share the care?

Katy’s much like any other nine year old girl. She just happens to be disabled. At times she would like the chance to do different things and meet new people. And her parents sometimes need a break too.

That’s where you come in. Offering a ‘home from home’ support service, you’ll provide children like Katy with a short-break, providing them with a chance to broaden their horizons and have positive new experiences.

So if you are committed and have the space and time to look after a child with physical and/or learning disabilities for a night, a weekend or even a longer holiday and you will be doing something really worthwhile.

As part of the Aiming High programme we are also seeking to recruit full time foster carers who have experience either caring for a disabled child at home or supporting them through a professional career in childcare. If you have the skills we are looking for to support a number of children (only one at any one time) with either challenging behaviour or complex health needs, then you could become a specialist foster carer with Cheshire East Council.

So call 0300 123 3223 or email fostering@cheshireeast.gov.uk for more information now. 

FACE the future together with Cheshire East Council.
