Social services Foster carers' real-life stories

Brenda's story

One of my best memories is from when we took some siblings on their first-ever holiday – they got so excited they could barely sleep the night before we travelled. During the holiday the children didn't want their day to end and couldn't wait till the morning to start over again.

I would encourage people to foster, as children need stability and structure, and you can make a difference to someone else's life.
