But this is real, the sad and true reality for some children in care- rather than the superficial happiness often portrayed in foster care. #ifnotnowwhen 🥲
They told us there was no money for our children and young people. Yet....
This isn’t just about one political party. It’s a reflection of a larger systemic issue.

“Sarah, founder of FosterWiki, said, ‘It was an unforgettable, uplifting, and empowering day. Receiving national recognition for our work supporting foster carers and the children they care for was a profound honour.’ Amazing 👏 #fosterWiki
Unbelivable day at #womenoftheyear70
I have no words to describe the sheer inspiration, energy & passion in that room.
Honoured to be there, even more humbled to be runner up in @reallorraine Trailblazer category.
Just WOW!
For all the foster carers and children ❤️

Had a brilliant time with the @loosewomen, talking all things ADH'D'! A great way to mark ADH'D' Awareness Month 😊 🥳

Whistleblowing can trigger allegations against foster carers. Without proper protections, rights, or status, carers are left vulnerable. It is crucial for foster carers to take care of themselves and join the union #nupfc.

Foster care is not suffering due to negativity....

💬 "I think we either need to be fully self employed, or employed with all rights, a minimum wage, work life balance, health care and a pension etc. Now we get the worse of both worlds and the benefits of none."

If you read one thing today....
A wonderfully funny look at something I think we can all relate to, social workers, anyone in children's services, including of course foster carers.

💬 "We are the only ones that are there for the children day in day out, there is so little support for them, we walk alongside them every day, we are by their side."

Do I recommend fostering at present? Absolutely.
Are there any positives? Absolutely, there are thousands – they are the looked-after children and young people who will be in your care.

Foster care is not struggling due to a lack of positivity; rather, its challenges stem from systemic issues and vested interests. The system suffers because there are more incentives tied to its failure than to its success.
