My Rights

Young People in foster care deserve to experience as full a family life as possible as part of a foster family. You should be given support to develop your own identity, be listened to, and fulfil your potential.

  • You have the right to be kept safe

  • You have the right to voice your opinions, give feedback, and you have the right to complain

  • You have the right to an education. All adults should listen to you and treat you fairly

  • You have the right to know why you are in care. You have the right to receive pocket money and your carers will save money for you in a bank account

  • You can find out more on your rights on the Children’s Commissioner website: childrenscommissioner.gov.uk
