🌊 Ready, set, slide!

Our Foster for Plymouth families swapped dry land for a day of soaking wet fun at the Slip and Slide. From children and foster carers to members of the Foster for Plymouth team, everyone got involved, and nobody stayed dry for long!

The day was full of laughter, encouragement and a few splash-filled surprises, showing once again the fantastic community spirit that brings our fostering families together.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for another memorable summer adventure. πŸ’™

πŸ¦πŸ’š Our Mockingbird family is getting bigger!

We're delighted to see more foster families joining Plymouth's growing Mockingbird community; a unique programme that brings foster carers together as an extended family, offering friendship, support and a helping hand when it's needed most.

Because fostering is easier when nobody does it alone. πŸ’™

Find out how Mockingbird is helping carers and children thrive, and why more families are choosing to be part of the flockπŸ‘‡

πŸ’­ Myth Monday | Let's bust another fostering myth...
❌ Myth: I have to be perfect to foster.
βœ… Fact: There is no such thing as the perfect foster carer.
Children don't need perfection. They need caring, patient adults who are willing to listen, encourage and be there when it matters most.

πŸ¦©πŸ“ No one ruffled more feathers than our fantastic foster families at this year's Foster for Plymouth Summer Family Fun Day!

From a flock of fancy-dressed birds taking on the fun run, to fierce tug of war contests, races, Beat the Keeper challenges and raffle excitement, the day was full of smiles from start to finish.

But beyond the games and laughter, the day celebrated something really special: the friendships, support and family spirit that make our Foster for Plymouth community so unique.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make it such a fantastic day. We can't wait to do it all again next year!

πŸ’™ Two payments. Two purposes.
One payment helps cover the everyday costs of caring for a child - from food and clothing to school essentials and activities.

The other recognises the time, commitment and care you give as a foster carer.

Together, they're designed to ensure you can provide a loving home without being financially disadvantaged.

Your experience can make a difference even closer to home. πŸ“

Children thrive when they can stay connected to the people and places that matter most.

Remaining close to their school, friends, hobbies and support networks can make an enormous difference during what is often one of the most challenging times in their lives.

That's why Foster for Plymouth is committed to keeping Plymouth children in Plymouth wherever possible.
If you're already an approved foster carer, transferring to us means your skills and experience can help local children remain part of their community.

It's fostering with local impact.
