Call for more people to come forward as foster carers

Bradford Children & Families Trust is among more than 100 councils and children’s trusts who wanted to send a message about the positive impact of foster carers.

The emotional film, ‘Everything’, shares how fostering through a council or children’s trust helps young people for the better. 

The ‘Everything’ project is the largest collaboration yet, featuring stories from Cumbria to Devon and Yorkshire to Essex.

Project director Rachel Brown added: “Having over 100 councils and trusts taking part in the project, the film will reach a very wide audience, encouraging people to find out more and take the steps towards becoming a foster carer.

“Fostering with your local council or children’s trust means you can better support local children and young people who need a safe and nurturing home where they can grow and thrive.”
