We did our research and being with an independent fostering agency felt like the right fit for us as a family. Our children were involved every step of the way in the decision to foster. Their responses ranged from ‘great, I’ll have other children to play with’ to wanting to help children who’d not had such a good upbringing as them.
The best part of my role is seeing the foster carers who, to begin with, may lack confidence or feel they are not doing things quite right, blossom into fostering experts. Seeing the bonds develop between the children and foster families makes everything we do worth it.
Hundreds of children are currently fostered or waiting to find foster parents in and around your area. National Fostering Group has local offices across Scotland including Glasgow, Fife, Dundee, Edinburgh and Perth.
