Its foster carers benefit from support hubs - regular meet-ups with other foster carers to talk about different issues and offer each other advice and help.

There are also events for foster carers and their families to celebrate the fostering community. Fostering for Nottingham­shire County Council means you are helping children in your local area.

As a non-profit organisati­on, they aim to place children with their own foster carers where possible and offer exceptiona­l benefits, support and training.

By becoming a foster carer and offering a welcoming, loving and caring home environmen­t, you can make a real difference to a child’s life – and your own!

The friendly fostering team holds regular informatio­n events where you can ask any questions you have about what it’s like to foster or the process involved. For informatio­n about these events and about fostering in general, including real life fostering stories, visit the Nottingham­shire County Council website https://www. nottingham­shire.gov.uk/care/ fostering/fostering-innottingh­amshire.
