What can the Oldham Family Link Scheme do for you?

Becoming a family link carer is one of the most rewarding and satisfying things you can do.

You will:

  • make a real difference to the lives of disabled children and their families;

  • develop friendships, both with the child and their family;

  • gain valuable experience caring for children;

  • get an allowance in recognition of expenses and time involved in caring for a child; and

  • have a dedicated family link worker who will provide ongoing training and support.

For more information or to apply, email familylink@oldham.gov.uk or telephone 0161 770 6540 for a friendly, informal chat.
