🏡 A safe home can give them a positive future.
🧡A supportive adult can help them believe in themselves.

This September, we're talking all about our rewarding supported lodgings scheme.

Supported lodgings offers young people aged 16-24 a safe, temporary home with a host who helps them build the skills and confidence they need to live independently.

Follow along this month as we share stories, bust myths and help you discover how you can make a difference as a host.🗓️

⭐🤠 Well done all!

Young people shine at BCP Fostering's Got Talent ⭐

Children and young people from our fostering community took to the stage at the Barrington Theatre yesterday to showcase their talents in music, dance and more.

Organised by BCP Fostering , the event celebrates achievements beyond the classroom, providing a supportive space where young people in foster care can build confidence, express themselves and be recognised for their unique talents.

A huge thanks to everyone involved, including our performers, judges, foster carers and colleagues who helped make the event possible. 🙏

Events like this show just how important supportive relationships are in helping children and young people thrive. 💙
