Foster Carer Wellbeing

Being a foster carer is incredibly rewarding, but we do also know that it can be rather demanding. With this in mind, we have developed a dedicated wellbeing programme for our foster carers in the North West.

Our foster carers have access to a range of different benefits and tools to support their wellbeing such as:

  • Help@Hand account – a remote health care service
  • Calm – a subscription to an award winning medication and mindfulness app
  • Blue Light Card – access to lots of discounts and offers

We also plan a range of Wellbeing Days Out paid for by TACT. During 2023, we took our foster carers to a Spa Day, a Picnic in the Park, Bowling and plenty of meals out – just another we try to show our heartfelt appreciation for all the hard work they do.

Highlights from some of our most recent TACT North West Foster Carer Wellbeing events.
