National Union of Professional Foster Carers レビュー 

When I was having persistent issues with a local authority funded agency, Robin at the NUPFC supported me to find an IFA.

Robin also advised on potential next steps relating to the decision making of the original agency.

You’re supporting foster carers if and when they need help that means a great deal to me

NUPFC has been the only independent support we have received during our challenging times. You have been there all hours of the day and night whenever we have needed you offering advice or simply listening you have made all the difference. Particular gratitude goes to Sandra Scoular, who is absolutely amazing.

Even though my complex case is still ongoing, this is the first time in my entire fostering journey that I have ever felt truly supported by anybody. The NUPFC stepped in immediately with real teeth and the corporate muscle needed to stand up to the local authority and protect my household. I’m so grateful and will leave a full, detailed update the second our case is officially resolved!

NUPFC have helped me on numerous occasions on very large matters. I have had prompt replies and help, follow ups and great advice. Honestly I feel they go above and beyond to help. They also remember you are human and test you with respect and kindness / care in these hard times. I couldn’t recommend them enough if I am honest. I have been working with Chris O and he’s been absolutely amazing and supportive. Thank you again!

I had to use the union when children had been placed with me, and on day 10, I still had no placement plan and no visit from the CSW. By 9:30pm that night, I had a placement plan and the CSW coming to visit the next day

A great supportive group of professional foster carers. Easy to contact, easy to talk to and with.

I have worked with Chris and Robin they are absolutely amazing at this job I felt so much at ease with how they handled my issues. If in doubt about joining don’t join straight away for protection you never know when you will need it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I have always been scared to involve a Union but felt I had no choice and needed their support. So glad I did because after only one meeting in which Robin attended via Teams, the difference is palpable and they agreed to my request. Will definitely be using again if the need arises. Thank you.

Outstanding support from day one from NUPFC . With their guidance and knowledge we have had a very successful outcome to a lado … PROUD TO BE ABLE TO SAY “INNOCENT”
If you’re thinking about joining - what have you to lose? Sign up today!!

All foster carers need there support.

If you are in or thinking about fostering. Then for your own safety and peace of mind, you need to join the NUPFC.

Always feel that we matter as foster careers and that the staff are always ready to listen to us
When sometimes you feel that nobody else wants to listen to your feelings or concerns

I would like to offer my sincere thanks to Robin and his guidance in a recent matter. My foster children were refused permission to go to my daughter's wedding, despite having the full backing of their schools and written permissions given. Today after they realised the union was now involved that decision was reversed. The children can now go. The upset and emotional stress the children have been put through these last few days has been awful. Putting that aside, I am pleased that the LA have relooked at the situation and allowed the children to attend. If anyone feels that they are alone out there as fostering can at times feel such a lonely role, especially as a single carer. You aren't. Join the NUPFC. peace of mind this will bring to you is worth every penny. Thanks again to Robin and the NUPFC.

Well I couldn't have got through a SOC/ the LA not returning the children who had been in my care for 4+ years without the Union (and inparticular Chris). The children were returned after nearly 5 weeks. The support and daily phone calls and updates were amazing. Gave me the strength to keep fighting. Join today as it could happen to you and you will need the support.

Great easy sign up

Robin has been very supportive of me when I went through issue with an agency I worked for. It went to arbitration and was resolved and then I moved to a new agency, who have been brilliant to work for. Robin was always there when needed.

I feel if I needed them I would get the support I need

They have a personal touch feel they care great having them in your corner . The work they are doing to acknowledge foster care as a legal profession is very important.

We had an allegation against us and the union advised us extremely well throughout the whole process. The union rep (Chris) who dealt with our case was always either available when we called or messaged, or phoned us back the same day.
