Kinship carers are very important people, giving love, support, and a stable home to many vulnerable children in Scotland. But we also know that being a kinship carer can be really tough.

A new National Kinship Care Service, run by CHILDREN 1ST and funded by the Scottish Government, has been set up to give information, advice and other support to kinship carers and children living in kinship care across Scotland. The National Service will also speak out about the issues affecting kinship carers so that the services and support that they need are prioritised. You can find out more about this Service online at www.children1st.org.uk or by filling in your contact details at the end of the survey.

CHILDREN 1ST wants to make sure that we provide the best possible service to kinship carers and the children that they look after.

That is why we are asking kinship carers from across Scotland if they will fill in the 15 questions below.

You can feel free to put as much or as little information as you like - your response will be kept confidential, and the results from all the surveys will be summarised and made anonymous.

If you would prefer to fill in this survey on paper or using alternative formats, email policy@children1st.org.uk with your postal address, or you can phone ParentLine Scotland on 0800 028 2233 and they'll record your answers for you.
