Why fostering needs to keep up with the digital world
Foster carers look after some of the UK’s most vulnerable children. They have to have strength of character and love in their heart to do so, but fostering is also about having real skills to look after these children. The skills that are needed evolve over time, and foster carers need to work extremely hard at developing their knowledge in areas that they may never have come across before so that they can tackle new issues with confidence.
