Wirral Council’s Fostering Service is developing a new Foster Carers Charter. To make this a useful and relevant document we want to co-produce it with Foster Carers themselves and with key staff in the Fostering Service.
The new charter will help to ensure a continued commitment to provide every young person coming into care with the best opportunities. It is essential that all in the foster service continue to work together as a team of professionals and in partnership with foster carers with honesty, respect, transparency, and trust.
We would like your anonymous feedback to help shape the charter to ensure that new and existing foster carers and the local authority understand the expectations of one another in ensuring children and young people achieve and have the best experiences and outcomes.
The results of this survey will be analysed and the insight will be used for follow-up workshops with foster carers and supervising social workers in July 2024 to co-produce the new Charter.
The survey is now closed.
