πŸ’™ Celebrating Children of Foster Carers Week 2026 πŸ’™

This week, Foster for East Midlands Councils is proud to support Children of Foster Carers' Week (12 to 18 Oct), celebrating the incredible children and young people who play such an important role in fostering families.

By sharing their homes, time and kindness, children of foster carers help children in care feel welcome, safe, valued and part of the family. Their support and understanding make a real difference every day.

Throughout the week, we'll be sharing messages of support and celebrating the vital contribution children of foster carers make to helping children and young people feel safe, welcomed and valued.

To every child and young person in a fostering family across the East Midlands: thank you. Your compassion, patience and support help change lives. πŸ’™

πŸ–€ Celebrating Black foster carers this Black History Month πŸ–€

This Black History Month, we recognise and celebrating the incredible contribution Black foster carers make across our communities.

By supporting local children and young people, helping them stay connected to their culture, heritage and identity, Black foster carers play a vital role in helping children feel valued, understood and proud of who they are.

We know representation matters, and we're committed to finding more foster carers from Black communities so that more children can grow up in homes where their culture and lived experiences are recognised and celebrated.

πŸ’› Why is Parent & Child Fostering needed?

Sometimes, new parents need a little extra support to give their baby the safe, loving start they deserve. Parent & Child fostering provides guidance, stability, and reassurance during those early, important months.

It can make a real difference for parents who may be:
β€’ Young or first-time parents
β€’ Recovering from difficult life experiences
β€’ Facing challenges with their mental health or recovery

With the right support in place, something incredible can happen πŸ’›
Families can stay together. Babies can thrive. Parents can grow in confidence and build brighter futures.

If you’ve ever thought about fostering, this could be your opportunity to make a lasting impact.

πŸ’› "I'd love to help a child, but I don't know where to start!"

You're not alone. Many of our foster carers began with that exact same question.

Coming along to one of our free information events is a simple first step. You'll meet our friendly fostering team, hear from experienced foster carers about what fostering is really like, and have the opportunity to ask any questions in a relaxed, informal setting.

Whether you're just curious or seriously considering fostering, there's no pressure and no obligation – just honest information to help you decide if it's something you'd like to explore further.

Every child deserves a safe, caring home. Could you be the person who makes that difference?
