Story
Our team of foster families, fostering service staff, friends and supporters are working together to celebrate foster care, raise awareness of the need for more foster carers and rasie funds to support the fostering community. Everything we raise will help ensure the 70,000 children and young people living with foster families today get the best possible care and life experiences.
With your support we can create more life changing moments for children and their foster families into the future.
Update:
Fatima Whitbread MBE, Olympic athlete and a champion for care experienced children, is taking on this year’s Foster Walk challenge and boosting our campaign for support.
Fatima will cross the UK to join us on three back-to-back Foster Walk events during Foster Care Fortnight, in Derry, Cardiff and London. She joins foster families, fostering services, supporters and friends to help raise funds for The Fostering Network.
"I have first-hand experience of how foster care can change lives. That’s why I’m dedicated to building a better future for those in the care system.
"I know change is possible when people come together to work for a shared vision. Will you join me in celebrating and supporting the fostering community this Foster Care Fortnight?"
