On #KinshipCareWeek we say a huge thanks to all the grandparents, siblings, aunts, uncles, other relatives and friends who have stepped in to raise children who can’t live at home 🙌 Kinship carers do an amazing job and we must make sure they and their children are supported.

I literally had 30 seconds on the doorstep to decide whether to take my Grandson in or not. Of course I took him, he’s my Grandson and I love him with all my heart. That was almost 5 years ago and I never realised how hard it was going to be, but I have a healthy and happy boy ❤️
