We're at the Southampton CTP Fair down at @TheAgeasBowl today! You can find our Marcus, and lovely Kate, at our stand ready to talk to you about fostering!

During the Our Voice Tour in August, Blue Sky staff and young people worked together to shape the #future of Blue Sky, one of the questions asked was 'Why does Blue Sky Exist?'. Here is an answer from a young person.

Our #Kent drop-in taking place at our #Chatham office on the 28th October at 1pm, would you like to learn more about #fostering? Pop by and we'll answer them for you! bit.ly/2MRyeEb

Every child that comes to live with a Blue Sky family gets a Blue Sky Bear to be there for them when they need a hug. The Blue Sky Bear even made an appearance at our BSF Fest! #HugABearDay

#FamiliesNotOrphanages #UNGA

When a young person comes into our care they are gifted a Blue Sky Bear to accompany them on their #fostering journey. It's all part of the #GiftOfFostering!

Everyone at Blue Sky Fostering would like to wish you a very merry #Christmas!

We hope you keep your New Year's Resolutions this year. What are they? If yours is to change a life for the better, then call us!

92% of independent #fostering agencies judged good or outstanding by Ofsted (only 2% inadequate), the care that IFAs offer children continues to be fantastic, well done! #OfstedAR19

We'd like to thank all of our #superhero Foster Carers who are doing their best to provide stability to vulnerable young people in the circumstances! Blue Sky is still running and we are #stillsupporting! ow.ly/3Qjl50yXOGN

So thankful for all those brave people who gave their lives so that we can enjoy freedom. But for them, humanly speaking, I would not exist - my father would have been exterminated along with so many of his family & other Jewish people WE WILL REMEMBER THEM #RemembranceSunday

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them. #RemembranceSunday  #RemembranceDay

Prince Philip had a lifelong commitment to inspiring, empowering and developing young people and we plan to continue his legacy through providing The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award, to all the young people in our care.

Watching this at the moment! What a fantastic way to use the The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award award with young people! Loved hearing about this, some very innovative points made #levelplayingfield #positivedistraction #structure Good luck to all the YP doing their awards! ⭐️

Great interview with Ed Hill-Thompson from Blue Sky Fostering on BBC News (UK) this morning. Hearing about young people lifting themselves up & finding a place in society is great. We’ve a foster home at the end of our lane and you can’t help but worry about the children & their futures.

Great to hear some of the amazing feedback that we have received from our Training & Participation Manager, Ed Thompson's interview regarding the positive changes that the The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Award make for young people in #FosterCare. Making a difference to young people is our passion!

"We could all see your passion was overflowing and you presented yourself well. Can I do the #DukeofEdinburghAward now?" A young person sent this message to Ed after hearing him talk on #BBCNews on Saturday about the #DofE Award!

Andrew Rome The most sensitive and intelligent commentary I have seen on this issue. Would be of such benefit if we could cut through the hysteria and emotion and make some sensible decisions that are based in evidence - that’s the practise we want, why not start from there in first place?

We’re proud and delighted to have been ranked Ofsted outstanding in all areas again! files.ofsted.gov.uk/v1/file/501786…
