Fostering refers to looking after a child who, for some reason, is separated from his/her family. To address the emotional needs and care for such children, foster parents are hired to look after them. You can apply to become a foster carer in an independent foster agency or your local council. It’s not important to have your own home, but you should have a spare bedroom.
You can be appointed as a Foster Carer regardless of your age, religion, region, caste, etc.
