We want to support all kinship carers in England and Wales, so we are investing in developing our services in Wales.
It’s really important that we develop these services with Welsh kinship carers and that we reflect their needs.
This page is also available to read in Welsh here.
How you can get involved:
If you’re a kinship carer in Wales:
- Complete a survey
Please fill out the survey below. It should take about 15-20 minutes to complete and the more information you’re happy to share, the more it will help us to shape our services.
It is totally confidential.
