It's Foster Care Fortnight - a chance to thank our amazing local foster carers and encourage more people to think about fostering.๐๐
We urgently need more local foster carers to provide loving, safe homes for local children and young people, especially foster carers who can look after brothers and sisters so families can be kept together.โค๏ธ๐
From a few nights a week to a long-term home, if youโre over 21 you can make all the difference to a childโs life in Stockport.
๐๏ธRead the latest issue of Post Community News GM Stockport Post (page 5) to learn more about what fostering involves.
