Without more foster carers children face moving a long way from their family and friends and being split up from their brothers or sisters.

Hide AdI feel proud to have been able to make a difference to the lives of so many children. Foster Care Fortnight has just raised the profile of fostering, but new foster carers are needed all year round.
I would urge anyone who has ever thought about fostering to get in touch with their local fostering service today, or visit www.couldyoufoster.org.uk or call Fosterline on 0800 040 7675 to find out more.
