Residents living or visiting Shrewsbury on the day, can come and speak to the Shropshire Fostering team face-to-face about any questions they may have.

Councillor Kirstie Hurst-Knight, cabinet member for children and education said:

“Every child in Shropshire deserves a loving home and fostering, for many children, can be their first positive experience of family life.

“Our foster carers do an incredible job of providing them with the stability and confidence they need. By committing their time and their love, carers give children – and often whole families – the time and the space to rebuild their lives.

“So, if you’re interested in becoming a foster carer, come and join the team for a discussion at our Fostering info point.

“You can come along by yourself or with a partner. If you are feeling indecisive about fostering or you’re not sure where to start your journey, this discussion is your perfect opportunity to find out more information. If you want to go ahead with the fostering process, there will be an advisor on hand to help you fill out the form if you so wish to do so.

“There will be several Fostering info points’ taking place at Shropshire Local over the next few months. You can find out more by following Shropshire Fostering’s Facebook page to keep up to date on our upcoming events.”
