Thinking about fostering? You don’t have to do it alone.

Our Buddy Scheme connects prospective foster carers with experienced carers who’ve been through the process themselves. It’s a great way to get honest advice, reassurance, and real-life insight before you take the next step.

A big thank you to The Fostering Network for hosting us, and to the wonderful Pete and Lucy from the Department for Education along with Hannah and Anya from Mutual Ventures, for their continued support🥰

Foster carers Nichola and Paul show how fostering is truly a family effort. Their daughter Emily has grown up surrounded by kindness and compassion, and she loves being part of everything they do to make children feel welcome.

Families like theirs show how fostering can bring people closer together and change lives in the best way.

It's Children of Foster Carers Week!

Behind every foster carer is a child whose love, patience, and support help make fostering possible. This month, we celebrate the amazing children of foster carers– the siblings, friends, and family members who share their lives, homes, and hearts to help children in care thrive. 🌟

Thank you to these incredible children for being part of a fostering journey that changes lives every day. Your support truly makes a difference.

Shape a local child’s future and foster with your local council.
