#ThankYou to all our foster carers, friends and team who came along to celebrate Aberlour Fostering’s 20th anniversary. It was a fantastic day hearing from @SallyAnnKelly1 and @gallagherone, playing games and celebrating our amazing foster carers and families. #Proud #Grateful

FOSTER CARE IN CRISIS: Government allowances are not keeping up with the skyrocketing costs of fostering.
Why are Black and LGBTQ+ families being deterred?

We’re now hearing from @gallagherone @theNAFP about the role of foster carers in supporting kinship care & thinking about kinship care in wider context of children’s social care.

Saying it loud for those in the back:
Cardiff, 8 years, no defaults
Sheffield, 7 years, no defaults
This isn't tough to implement, it isn't expensive, it isn't massively risky. Do it.

Please see @CasesComfort tweet to order but can you also help fundraise and support? That day when you're sat in a building with no idea where you're going to sleep that night, having a rucksack that's yours with pyjamas and toiletries inside won't fix it but will help
A bag of your own to move your most precious belongings during your care journey is surely the most basic form of respect we can show a child or young person. #nomorebinbags #dignity #love #hope
Order here comfortcasesuk.org/order-1 or drop me an email Sarah@comfortcasesuk.org

This still happens and it needs to stop.... more than 20 years we've been asking!
Anyone involved in fostering or Foster Care please get in touch with @CasesComfort or @wearemadlug who will give you free luggage
