As Foster Care Fortnight comes to a close, we reflect on this year’s theme: This is Fostering.

Over the past week, we’ve highlighted the reality behind fostering , the misconceptions, the facts, and most importantly, the people who provide safety, stability and care to children and young people every day.

Foster carers play a vital role in helping children feel secure during some of the most challenging moments in their lives. Their support can shape not just outcomes, but futures.

We are proud to stand alongside the fostering community and to support those who may need legal guidance around fostering, special guardianship and wider family arrangements.

While this campaign may end, the need for understanding, awareness and support continues all year round.

If you need advice or guidance, our Family team is here to help.
