Belong Portsmouth Open Morning

Earn up to £1,000 per week fostering for Belong Portsmouth while being supported by a specialist therapeutic team.

📅 Friday 20 November

📍 St Luke’s Church, Greetham Street, Portsmouth

Belong Portsmouth is designed to help more Portsmouth children return to, or stay connected with, the city they call home. Too many children are currently cared for outside Portsmouth, meaning they are further away from their schools, friends, communities and the people who know them best.

Belong aims to change this by creating more specialist fostering opportunities in Portsmouth, helping more children live closer to their local support networks and maintain the connections that are important to them.

What is the financial package?

💷 Belong carers can receive up to £1,000 per week, recognising the specialist skills, commitment and availability needed to care for children with more complex needs.

At the open morning we’ll explain the full financial package, support offer and what being a Belong carer involves day to day.

Every child deserves to feel they belong. Could you help make that happen?
