Become part of our fostering community

Our fostering community

Choosing to foster with us makes you a part of a warm, vibrant community that:

  • celebrates together
  • supports one another
  • creates lasting memories for the children in our care

A thriving fostering community is one of the most powerful things we can offer - both to our foster carers and to the children whose lives we shape together.

If you're thinking about fostering, you can be sure that with us, you'll never be on your own. You'll be welcomed, celebrated and surrounded by people who truly understand the experience.

Events

Throughout the year, we host a programme of events that brings our fostering community together. There's always something to look forward to.

Summer and Christmas events

We make summer memories on our annual seaside trip and round off the year in style at our Christmas party.

Smaller group events

We regularly come together to connect in smaller groups, known as Mockingbird constellations. These groups offer vital peer-to-peer support and guidance alongside social activities.

Connecting with other foster carers

Every event is a chance:

  • to connect with fellow foster carers
  • for children to build friendships
  • for everyone to feel the strength of the community around them
