🐾 Got a dog? You could still foster!
One of the questions we hear from people thinking about fostering is:

“Can I foster if I have a dog?” 🐶
The answer is yes, in many cases.

Your dog will be considered as part of your fostering assessment, and your fostering service will make sure any placement is safe and suitable for both your dog and the child.

And for some children, having a friendly four-legged companion around can bring comfort, companionship and a little bit of joy during a difficult time.

We're celebrating the dogs who are a big part of fostering families. ❤️🐕

Don't let having a dog stop you from exploring fostering.

Behind the anger, there is often hurt.
Behind the silence, there is often fear.

One of the greatest Foster Carer superpowers is helping a child discover they don't have to face those feelings alone.

Not by having all the answers.
But by listening, understanding and reminding them—every single day—

"You belong here."
Sometimes just sharing these three words can be the beginning of a whole new story.

This is Fostering. Can you foster?

Ever felt like your words just aren't landing? 🤔 Not every child is ready to listen the first time around.

Sometimes, the most caring thing you can do is repeat yourself—with the same calm voice, the same kindness, and the belief that you're making a difference. 💖

Trust isn’t built in one conversation. It’s built by showing up, again and again. This is Fostering.

🎁 Ever wondered what the greatest gift to a child is? It's your FULL attention. 🌟 Listening without interrupting. Understanding without judging. Making them feel their words are the most important you've heard all day.

When kids feel heard, they believe they matter.

This is what fostering is all about. ❤️
