On top of this, carers who are fostering in Cardiff have a large and active peer network that includes several local support groups.
I have been fostering with National Fostering Group for 15 years - that in itself speaks volumes. There's lots of support from the agency, supervising social workers and fellow carers and that's important to me.
We have regular local training courses, support groups and a carers' website, which you can access once you're an approved foster carer. We also meet socially for coffee mornings and lunch. Come join us - you know you want to!
Being a foster carer with National Fostering Group has been fantastic right from the beginning. They answered my questions, eased my concerns, and gave me the support I needed to get going.
Since then, they've provided fantastic support at every opportunity, which has allowed me to make a big difference to the lives of the kids I care for.
Hundreds of children and young people are awaiting foster parents in Wales. National Fostering Group has local offices across the country including Cardiff, Wrexham, Swansea, Rhonda Cynin Taf and Newport, plus a North Wales support group hub in Rhyl.
