Full details and application documents here Due to financial pressures linked to the current cost of living crisis, TACT has taken the bold move to make Council Tax contributions for all of its current foster carers. The scheme, which starts on 1st April 2024, will mean that TACT foster carers will receive two instalments annually to help with Council Tax payments. The actual amounts paid will be based on a carer’s fostering experience (in years). Liam King, TACT’s Chief Finance Officer, said: “As a charity, TACT doesn’t make any profit or pay any interest or dividends to investors. This means every penny goes directly into providing the best care for our young people. “We are proud of the work of our amazing foster carers. Just as we supported our carers with additional payments during COVID, TACT continue to support them through the ongoing period of high costs by making contributions to council tax. By supporting our foster carers, we are supporting them to achieve the best possible outcomes for the children that they work so hard to care for.” According to GOV.UK, the average Band D council tax set by local authorities for 2023-24 in England is £2,065, which is an increase of 5.1% on the 2022-23 figure of £1,966. Other additional household expenses such as increased interest rates and energy costs have resulted in many households struggling to cope financially. By making contributions to their foster carer’s council tax bill, TACT hope that this will provide some financial breathing space in the current climate.

All reasonable expenses will be reimbursed Hours: Three days per month on average Closing Date: 12/01/2024 TACT is the UK’s largest dedicated fostering charity, with over 500 foster carers currently providing loving homes for over 600 children and young people across England, Scotland and Wales. We have annual income of £25million and 200 staff.
Since we were founded in 1993, we have strived to offer excellent care for all our children entrusted to us and to instil positive change in the wider care system. We have also sought to innovate so we can improve the experiences of children and young people in the care system to transform outcomes for the better. TACT has continued to undertake a wide range of innovative work across the UK. We have recently added a health service to our successful education service, which is proving to be both a much-needed resource in improving educational outcomes for our children. We have also launched TACT Connect, initially with support from the Rank Foundation and now with a significant four-year Lottery grant. TACT Connect recognises that parenting never stops and we aim to stay in touch with all of the children we have cared for so that we can celebrate their successes and offer support when required. TACT Connect is a wholly unique service in the sector. We aim to remain at the leading edge of improving the UK care system. Underpinning all of this vital work are our excellent staff and, of course, our amazing and inspirational foster carers. They are caring for children and young people who are vulnerable, but also full of hopes, dreams, potential and joy. Good foster families provide safe and stable homes and help children fulfil their potential and enable them to lead happy and successful lives. This is an important and exciting time to be joining as Chair. Despite a challenging market, with continued cuts to local authority funding, we have remained in a strong financial position, generating a surplus for the past two years. We are now in a fortunate position to be able to further invest in growth and innovation for the years ahead, creating more, tailored services to better support our children and their families. We are therefore looking for a Chair who can build on our ambition by attracting a diverse range of skills and personal lived experiences to our Board through the appointment of new Trustees, and by providing critical challenge and oversight to our work. We are looking for an experienced and inspiring board member who brings an understanding of best-in-class governance and exceptional board development skills; a leader who can get the best out of teams but who can also hold people to account. You will likely have knowledge of Children’s Social Care, and an understanding of fostering and adoption services would be useful, although not essential. An ability to maintain financial resilience within a commissioned environment will be important though. We are all excited about the opportunity this appointment presents to lead our charity into the next phase of its journey, with our foster carers and children at the heart. We hope that you want to be part of it. In addition to welcoming applicants from all backgrounds, we are particularly interested in hearing from candidates who bring personal experience as a carer.
