PETITION FOR EQUAL RIGHTS!
There is a forgotten army of grand parents, relatives and friends who look after children that would otherwise be in the local authority care system.
These children and carers are being discriminated against and are given minimum if no financial assistance from your local authority.
A nuclear family of four local authority foster carers are given £4500 per calendar month to look after 2 children.
KINSHIP CARERS are given nothing but means tested benefits. DO YOU think this is right?
Please sign this petition if you believe this is unfair.
We, the undersigned, call on the government to recognise KINSHIP carers' rights and to implement the changes to legislation.
