🎃 Halloween is made up of simple moments...

🍬 Sharing sweets
🎃 Carving pumpkins
👻 Choosing a costume
✨ Making memories together

For children who need foster care, these everyday moments can mean more than you know.

Right now, thousands more foster carers are needed across the UK, including here in Wiltshire.

Fostering isn't about being extraordinary. It's about sharing the everyday care, time and support that helps a child thrive.

💛 Could you make a difference?

🚨 What is STEPS fostering?

Sometimes children need somewhere safe to stay at very short notice.

Short Term Emergency Provision Scheme or STEPS carers provide emergency foster care for children and young people who need immediate support.

It can be one of the most challenging roles in fostering, but also one of the most important.

As a STEPS carer you'll receive:
✅ Full training
✅ Dedicated support
✅ Ongoing guidance
✅ Financial allowances

Most importantly, you'll be there when a child needs someone most.
💛 Could you help provide safety in a child's moment of crisis?

✨ The real magic of Halloween isn't in the costumes, pumpkins or sweets.

It's helping a child feel safe.
It's building their confidence.
It's being there to celebrate the moments that matter, big and small.

Every day, foster carers help children and young people feel secure, supported and ready to thrive.

💙 Could you be part of a child's story?

Pumpkins were painted, cake was eaten, and creativity was put to the test at our latest Cake & Create session!

A big thank you to our foster carers for joining us and for everything they do for Wiltshire's children and young people. And thank you Farmhouse Inn, Southwick for your support.

You notice things others miss.

You value routine and consistency.

You understand that people experience the world differently.

These aren't just personal qualities. They could be qualities that help a child feel safe, understood and supported.

Could you foster?

Single or married. Working or retired.
Neurodivergent or neurotypical.

There is no one type of foster carer.

What matters is your ability to provide a safe, caring and stable home where a child can thrive.

If you've ever wondered whether fostering is for you, we'd love to hear from you.
