Transfer to us

Are you currently fostering with an independent fostering agency (IFA) and considering a change? Join our supportive community of foster carers at BCP Council.

Transferring from an IFA to BCP Council was the best thing we ever did. The process to transfer was much easier than we thought it was going to be and it's been really great meeting other carers and social workers, all who have been really supportive and friendly. Lucy, BCP Council foster carer
Why transfer to us?
By fostering with us, you can benefit from:
  • high quality training and ongoing support
  • experienced, dedicated and friendly social workers
  • consistent placements
  • generous fees and allowances
  • a not-for-profit approach that puts children and young people at the heart of everything we do
What does the transfer process involve?
We understand that transferring can feel like a big step but we’re here to make it as smooth and straightforward as possible.
  • our friendly team will guide you through every step of the process
  • transfers are tailored to meet the needs of each carer
  • if you already have a child in placement, we’ll hold a contracts meeting to ensure continuity of care
  • we work closely with you to ensure the process is quicker than a full new assessment
