Big thanks to everyone at the Arsenal Supermarket on Blackstock Road for their donations during our Foster Care Fortnight 2023 walk. The day turned out to be a scorcher in the end so the refreshments were greatly appreciated! #fosterforyourcouncil #Arsenal #islington

What a lot of seeds! The last of the 15,000 seed packets getting bagged up to go out to primary schools in Islington as part of our partnership with the fab Islington In Bloom. Get ready to sea a meadow of golden marigolds across the borough! #fosterforyourcouncil

How about this for a wonderful addition to our In Bloom horticultural competition? Not strictly grown but certainly a beautiful - and tasty - bloom. Big thanks to foster carer Walt for this brilliant sunflower bake!

Like the best gardens we all need someone to nurture & support us, so its fitting we are partnering with In Bloom, run by Islington Gardeners & Islington Council. Celebrating the 20th year we'll be at the launch this Saturday, at Angel Centre, Islington from 11-2pm so pop down!

Another great little blog by our friend @philwatson184 As childcare professionals we may forget that not everyone knows the differences & details between what we deal with on a daily basis. Thankfully there are people like Phil who thoughtfully break it down simply. Thanks Phil🙂

We are birth parents. We became foster carers in 2011. In 2016 we adopted. Fostering and adoption are not the same ⁦@lpoolfostering⁩ ⁦@AdoptionUK⁩ ⁦@adoptmerseyside⁩ ⁦@TACTCare⁩ ⁦@one_adoption⁩ fosteringandadoptionwithphil.com/2023/04/04/fos…

Happy #WorldBookDay! Reading with a child is incredibly important, not just for reading skill & imagination but to aid emotional development & create happy memories. This is why we encourage all our foster carers to promote reading & education to the children in their care.
