Foster Care Fortnight 2021 - Episode 4

Welcome to the Fostering Focus podcast from Norfolk County Council, this week is The Fostering Networks, Foster Care Fortnight with the theme #WhyWeCare.

If nurture is in your nature, Norfolk County Council would like to hear from you. Adventurous, optimistic, and positive individuals who can offer a child meaningful support by opening their hearts and their homes. Through love and patience, kindness and understanding, you can help turn a life around. 

Across Norfolk, there is a growing need for foster families to welcome children into their homes. Foster carers provide fantastic family settings and really change the lives of children and we need more of them, particularly enhanced foster carers who could help a child who has faced more challenges in their lives and need greater support from their foster placement.
