What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Wiltshire Council has launched a Kinship Zones pilot scheme, which it is delivering as one of seven local authorities selected by the Department for Education. The scheme aims to raise awareness of financial support available for individuals caring for a child whose parents are unable to do so. Eligible kinship carers, such as grandparents, aunts, or uncles, could receive non-means-tested weekly payments ranging from £176 to £267, depending on the child’s age.
