The theme for Black History Month 2026 encourages us to recognise people whose contributions often go unseen.

Foster carers are among those people.

They provide stability during difficult times, celebrate achievements, support education, attend appointments, listen, encourage and care.

The impact they have on children's lives can last a lifetime.

Today we're saying thank you to all foster carers who continue to support local children and young people throughout the year ๐Ÿงก

One of the strengths of our community is its diversity.

Children in care come from a wide range of backgrounds, cultures and experiences. Having foster carers from different communities helps us meet children's individual needs and support their sense of identity.

This Black History Month, we're celebrating the diversity that strengthens our fostering community and helps children feel understood, respected and valued ๐Ÿงก

Could you make a difference to a local child's future?

Today is World Teachers' Day, and we're saying a huge thank you to the teachers who help children feel safe, inspire confidence, and support them to grow and thrive ๐Ÿงก

If you're a teacher or TA, have you ever considered fostering?

Many of the skills you use every day transfer naturally to fostering. And with a range of fostering opportunities available, there's often an option that can fit around your existing lifestyle and term-time commitments.

If you're curious about how your skills could make an even bigger difference to local children in Wokingham Borough, we'd love to hear from you.

This Kinship Care Week, we recognise the incredible relatives and friends who provide loving, stable homes for children when their parents are unable to do so.

Whether you're a grandparent, sibling, aunt, uncle or family friend, the care, patience and support you give every day changes lives.

To all kinship carers, thank you. Your dedication, resilience and the countless acts of care that often go unnoticed deserve recognition and support ๐Ÿงก

Because every child deserves a community that cares ๐Ÿงก
