Our South families had a FANG-tastic time at their Halloween party this weekend!

There were some brilliant costumes and even better dancing!

Thank you all for coming.

Flourish Fostering is a proud sponsor of Dalton United Football Club U16s for the second year running!

Alex, one of our Flourish foster parents, has coached the team since they were under-7s!

This season is their last in junior football, and they've returned to their original blue and white kit for the occasion, now featuring the Flourish logo!

They're off to a great start, having already reached two cup semi-finals.

Good luck for the rest of the season, boys!

Are our therapists experts?
Well, yes. But also, not quite.

Our therapists have years of training, knowledge and experience. But that doesn't mean they know everything, and they wouldn't claim to.

Every child is different. Every family is different. And even with years of experience, there will always be new perspectives, research and experiences to learn from.

Being a therapist isn't about always having the answers. It's about asking questions, listening, reflecting and being willing to challenge what you think you know.

So, are our therapists experts?

In their fields, they are ABSOLUTELY experts. But they're also lifelong learners, which is a hugely important part of being a good therapist.

"It's about everybody understanding that this is what's going to make it work best in terms of outcomes for the child"

To the children of foster parents... 💛

Being part of a fostering family means you have to share your home, your things and sometimes your parents' time and attention with other children.

There can be lots of great things about growing up in a fostering family. You can make new friends and create memories together. But...it isn't always easy, and there might be times when things feel a bit difficult.

It's completely normal to have mixed feelings about fostering. You might really enjoy having other children in your home, but also sometimes wish you had a bit more space or time with your parents. Both of those things can be true!

We think it's really important to recognise the part you play in your fostering family, and to remember that your own feelings and needs are just as important as everyone else's.

So, this Children of Foster Parents' Week, we wanted to take the opportunity to say a big THANK YOU to all the children who are part of our Flourish fostering families. We really appreciate you and hope you know how important you are. 🧡💙

P.S. We've popped a little something in the post for you, so keep an eye out!

Last week, I had the opportunity to join some of our foster parents and staff for a really interesting training session delivered by Sarah and James from Replenish Culture.

I thought I'd share a few things I took away from the session that I found particularly interesting!

Supporting someone through their difficult days can look like a lot of different things

Maybe it's making them a cup of tea and sitting with them for a while, sharing a laugh. Or simply letting them know you're there

For children who have experienced trauma and those supporting them, these small moments can be especially important

This , we're sharing this reminder from our therapy team that supporting someone's emotional well-being doesn't always have to be complicated

Yesterday, we were lucky enough to have Sarah and James from Replenish Culture lead a session with some of our northern foster parents and staff.

The session was really insightful, and everyone who attended found it incredibly useful.

If you're in the area and would like to learn more, Sarah and James are also hosting Replenish Culture: Hair Care and Community in Camden on 24th October.

It's a great opportunity to continue the conversation and learn more about culturally inclusive hair care.

You can find out more about the event and book your place here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/replenish-culture-hair-care-and-community-tickets-2002281501872
