✨ Our foster carers have been making the most of the summer holidays, creating special memories with the children and young people in their care.

From exciting days out and new adventures to simple moments spent together, every experience helps build confidence, strengthen relationships, and create lasting memories.

One of our carers recently surprised a child with a special trip to Newcastle United Football Club, creating an unforgettable experience that brought excitement and joy.
A huge thank you to our incredible foster carers for the care, dedication, and opportunities they provide every day. Your commitment helps children and young people enjoy a summer filled with fun, laughter, new experiences, and a true sense of belonging. πŸ’™

🌟 Good News Story! 🌟
One of our amazing foster carers has shared some wonderful news about one of the children in their care. πŸ’™

Huge congratulations to him for taking part in his very first football tournament with Comets Football – an inclusive football programme for children with disabilities. ⚽
What an incredible achievement! Out of six matches, the team won every single game, and he scored an amazing three goals! πŸ™ŒπŸ₯…

As if that was not enough, only a small number of players were chosen to receive a special recognition T-shirt for their outstanding performance throughout the tournament – and he was one of them! πŸ‘•β­

We are incredibly proud of everything he has achieved. His confidence, determination and enthusiasm have really shone through, and it is wonderful to see him enjoying his football and being recognised for all his hard work.
A special thank you also goes to his amazing foster carers, whose encouragement, dedication and unwavering support have helped him develop the confidence to try new experiences and achieve moments like this. Their commitment makes such a positive difference every single day.

Well done – and well done to your fantastic foster carers. What an incredible team! πŸ’™βš½πŸŽ‰
