More foster carers are needed now more than ever to create safe and supportive homes for children in care.
39% of people who are open to fostering are motivated by hearing positive things about fostering from other people and foster carers.
As a foster carer you can encourage other people in your community to become foster carers but to also change perceptions around foster care.
This Foster Care Week 2024:
-
Have a conversation with someone in your community about the power of fostering
-
Share our Foster Care Week social media pack across your social media channels.
-
Share our information pack with prospective foster carers.
-
