We are Diane and Keith and we've been working as respite foster carers for Kasper for nearly a year now. We fostered for another agency before this but transferred to Kasper as they are ‘not-for-profit’ and have an excellent reputation for supporting foster carers.

 

Since being with Kasper, we have cared for many different children and young people from all walks of life, with varying personalities, abilities and needs.

 

Kasper have, each time, carefully matched us and the children, being mindful of our abilities and knowledge and the needs of each child.

 

The agency’s guiding beliefs and distinguishing ethos - to put children at the centre of everything they do, mirrors our own, making one of the best working relationships in our many years of fostering and employment.

​

All members of staff at Kasper are on hand to help and support whenever needed and regularly ‘check in’ to find out how we're doing. Their out of hours service is efficient and easily accessible, providing excellent support when carers often need it most.

​

Comprehensive training and support groups are well presented, informative, engaging and relevant. Training courses are both face to face and online and requests for relevant learning needs are always considered by the agency.
