What is fostering?
Sometimes children and young people experience situations where they are unable to live with their birth family. Fostering can offer children and young people a safe and stable environment with trained Foster Carers that can give them the care and support they need.
Children and young people can come into care for a variety of reasons. Whatever the reason, fostering gives children and young people a secure and loving environment where they can grow and develop.
This might be a temporary or a long-term arrangement.
Being in care doesn’t necessarily mean anything bad, it just means that your parents couldn’t take care of you in that point in time to the best of their ability, for whatever reason. By fostering you do a lot of good.
