Myth: I have my own children, so I can’t foster. Fact: Many carers have their own children – we carefully match a child to your household. Having your own children gives you valuable childcare experience that could be useful when a child is placed with you. #MythBustingMonday

Why foster for B&NES? All children who come into care in B&NES are the responsibility of the Council and we look to our own foster carers first to find a local home for them. You can choose the types of fostering you do and the age of the children you prefer to look after.

As Christian families step forward to foster or adopt, we want to ensure our churches are safe and welcoming for all children and young people. Free training here: homeforgood.org.uk/events/welcome…

The Home for Good Foundations course is for anyone who wants to further explore fostering or adoption. This course is specifically for people in the Bath area and will be run by Bath Local Movement Lead and local Home for Good Champions.Sign up here: homeforgood.org.uk/events/foundat…

There are over 103,000 children are in the care system across the UK. Many will have suffered neglect or abuse. All will experience trauma and loss. Each one deserves a home where they will be loved, nurtured and enabled to thrive. Can you make room?

All refugees deserve safety, compassion & the chance to rebuild in our communities as our neighbours. Sending refugees thousands of miles away to a place they have no connection with, where they have no family or friends, is a horrifying idea. RT if you agree.

As part of our Rethinking the Bible series, Dave Kingswood from Home for Good Bath area joins us to talk about how the bible has shaped his passion for vulnerable kids, particularly those who need to be fostered or adopted. Join us for refreshments from 10am, our service begins at 10.30am.

We had a lovely evening last night celebrating our foster carers at our Celebration Evening! Thank you to everyone that came along.

Why foster for B&NES? You’ll join a friendly and supportive fostering community that has the opportunity to meet regularly.
