Our fostering team are embarking on a two-week tour of towns and cities across the South East for Foster Care Fortnight. This is a chance to celebrate the incredible role foster carers play in changing lives, and raise awareness of the urgent and continual need for new foster carers.
Step by Step Fostering’s Registered Manager, Sarah Faulkner, and Supervising Social Worker, Sue Collier, will be exhibiting at various locations (see the list below) between 10th and 22nd May.
Foster Care Fortnight, organised by The Fostering Network, is the largest annual awareness campaign within the fostering community. This year’s theme is the Power of Relationships, because at the heart of every fostering journey are the connections that make all the difference.
Step by Step Fostering is unique among fostering agencies – the funds it raises go into supporting other Step by Step services, helping further young people, including those facing homelessness.
If you’re interested in fostering, or just want to chat to our friendly, expert team, look out for us at the following locations:
In the meantime, you can find out more about fostering through a life-changing charity.
We are proud to announce the opening of our new move-on property in Bedhampton. This home will support up to four young people aged 18 and over, many of whom might otherwise be left waiting on housing lists, homeless, or relying on a friend’s sofa.
The Bedhampton property is the third Step by Step move-on home – a unique accommodation model for young people ready to move on with their lives but with no viable housing options available to them.
