Question 1 Please could you tell me your 2021-22 weekly foster care
allowances for all age bands, NOT including any fee/reward
element for foster carers
Answer 1 This would be defined within the South-Central Framework and is
therefore available directly from them. Spots are individually
negotiated and therefore cannot be part of this answer. Slough
IFA would have to provide their rates directly   

 

Question 2 Please detail any allowances that ALL foster carers can claim
in addition to their weekly allowance, e.g., holiday allowance
or mileage
Answer 2 As above

 

Question 3 Please could you tell me your 2021-22 weekly allowances for
former foster carers looking after young people in 18+ Staying
Put arrangements, broken down by year 1, year 2, and year 3 if
necessary.
Answer 3 These are bespoke negotiations and therefore would be
commercially sensitive
