Member News: TACT Launch ‘Making Spaces’ Scheme

We’re excited to announce the launch of Making Spaces, a new grant programme designed to help foster carers increase their room capacity to welcome more children into their homes.

The Making Spaces grants are intended to support our foster carers to bring an existing room into use for a foster child, or to create a new room altogether. This might involve subdividing a larger room or repurposing a space currently used for something else – such as a home office.

The scheme is about removing barriers and making it possible for carers to continue fostering or to offer a home to another child who needs one. Although it’s only recently launched, the scheme is already having a meaningful impact, with 11 applications received to date.
