Hello,
Are there any single FC out there who could advise me on finances, please? I would be leaving a well paid job to foster full time, so i'm not doing this for the money, but need to know i can pay my mortgage etc.
My LA pays a fee on top of an allowance, but even that does not seem like it would cover the cost of bills plus looking after children, yet i could not work part time as the only carer.
IFA - do they all pay a fee/retainer, even when you are between placements?
I'm thinking that long term care might be a more manageable option so then i know i have an income. I have 0-10 in mind and would welcome siblings.
Grateful to hear any experiences on how you cope financially if you're a single carer, please.
