This year's theme for Foster Care Fortnight TM is #FosteringCommunities.
Foster care is at the heart of our communities, enabling children to stay in their local community, close to everything that is familiar to them. This Foster Care Fortnight we want to celebrate all the fostering community does to ensure children are cared for and supported to thrive.
Download the resources below and use them during Foster Care Fortnight (15 - 28 May) to tell everyone about your fostering community.
Please note: Foster Care Fortnight is trademarked, so please make sure you use the correct name (not, for example, Fostering Fortnight). Please remember to tag The Fostering Network in when talking about Foster Care Fortnight on social media and use the hashtags #FosteringCommunities and #FCF23.
