News from Northern Ireland - summer is on its way ...

Please find attached information on activities we have coming up, including our summer programme.

As well as a comprehensive programme of daytime summer schemes for young people aged 8 – 17 we will also be delivering our exciting Pathways to University residential in Ulster University, Coleraine from 3 - 6 July 2023 for young people aged 15 - 17 at the time of the scheme. 

The events are run by our Fostering Attainment and Achievement service, which works to improve educational outcomes for children in foster care. To register interest for any of these events please email events@fostering.net or call 028 90705056. Please note spaces are limited for these activities, so please register early.

Important policy update: We are carrying out a consultation with members on the Department of Health’s review of the existing Northern Ireland Policy on allegations in foster care. We welcome your views on the existing policy as well as opportunities for improvement.

Please could you complete the survey it will take approximately five-ten minutes. Your response will be shared anonymously and will help inform the review.
