Why do we hold Children of Foster Carers Week? This quote says it all. 💬 We want to celebrate incredible children like Daniel, who have a natural gift for offering love and support to others. Fostering simply wouldn’t be the same without you. 💖 #COFCW25

This week, we’ve been inspired by foster carers sharing just how proud they are of their own children and the incredible way they’ve adapted to fostering. 🧡 Thank you to Brody's mum Kym for sharing these words with us this Children of Foster Carers' Week. #COFCW2025

Her mum Gayle shared: “Lily always amazes me with how caring and friendly she is when new children come into our care. She goes above and beyond to make them feel welcome - drawing pictures, decorating their bedroom door with their name and reading bedtime stories."

One of Lily’s favourite fostering memories is when the other children joined her mum and dad’s pre-wedding photos. “It was a fun picture,” Lily said.

She told us she loves having other children around because there's always someone to play with - though she admits sharing toys can be tricky sometimes!
