Are you or someone in your family currently serving in the Armed Forces in Hampshire? Could you make a difference at home as well as in your career?
Around 10% of the Hampshire population are currently serving in the Armed Forces and in January 2023 this equated to around 12,650 military personnel and 4,770 civilians, working to keep our country safe.
As a military family you have incredible resilience, a core commitment to supporting your community and country, and an ability to deal with change with little notice. You also have a whole raft of experiences that will allow you to identify and empathise with children in care, from having to be away from family and build new connections under difficult circumstances, to having to move at little to no notice.
We understand that you may have questions about fostering and how the assessment process might work whilst you are serving so we have put together some Frequently Asked Questions to try to answer some of these. Please also reach out to the team on 01489 587052, fostering@hants.gov.uk or visit our website if you have any further questions.
