Bristol City Council - New Fostering 'Ask'




Bristol City Council is desperately looking for Long Term Foster carers for at least 5 sibling groups.  If carers cannot be found  to welcome these children into their families until they are independent, brothers and sisters will have to be split up which is just too horrible to contemplate. 

Clare Walker (see below) has provided a film which speaks into the issue, and provides a very clear overview of what is required. The link to the film can be found through the Home for Good website as follows: https://www.homeforgood.org.uk/bristol, or can also be shared as a standalone film through this link:  Bristol Fostering Siblings - Jan 2021 on Vimeo.
 
For those you know who might be interested in hearing more of the background to this challenge Home for Good are planning a national specialist information event on 21st January, the link to which is as follows:

Please do share this across your congregations, and with specific people who you feel may be interested in this.
 
Please note that the need is urgent, and real.

Any interest should be channelled directly to Clare Walker - South West Regional Manager for Home for Good - who’s contact details are as follows:
