You can apply to become a foster carer if you are 21 years or over. Although this is the minimum age to apply, we want to ensure prospective foster carers have sufficient life experience before making such a big life changing decision.
Your age, life experiences and professional skills will all be taken into account during the application process and often carers will be 25 years or older before they become approved.
