This week were proud to be celebrating Children of Foster Carers’ Week! 💕

Children of foster parents play such an important part in fostering. They share their homes, their families, their time and so many special moments with children who come into their lives.

This week is all about recognising them and celebrating the kindness, understanding and support they show along the way.

A huge thank you to all the amazing children of our foster families! 💖

A Very Special Graduation – Congratulations to Amazing Foster Parents!

What a wonderful way to finish our 16-month journey with 13 incredible foster parents from The Hazel Project, who have successfully completed and graduated from their Therapeutic Practitioners Award!

Over the past 16 months, we've had the absolute pleasure of working alongside this fantastic group, sharing experiences, exploring therapeutic approaches, challenging our thinking and, most importantly, reflecting on the incredible work they do every single day.

The level of honesty, commitment, personal growth and reflection throughout the programme has been truly inspiring. Our final graduation session was a lovely reminder of just how far everyone has come.

Fostering isn't always easy. It takes patience, resilience, understanding and a huge amount of heart. What has really stood out to us is your willingness to look beyond behaviour, understand the needs of the children in your care and continue developing yourselves as therapeutic parents.

You should all be incredibly proud of what you've achieved. We certainly are!

A huge congratulations to all 13 graduates. Your awards are thoroughly deserved, and we've genuinely enjoyed every minute of our journey together.

From all of us at LifetrainUK, thank you for your enthusiasm, your openness, your laughter and, above all, the difference you continue to make in the lives of children and young people.

Well done, everyone – keep doing what you do so brilliantly!

AI chatbots are increasingly part of children’s digital lives, with tools such as ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini and My AI being used for questions, ideas, homework support and content generation.

While these tools can create opportunities for learning and creativity, they also introduce important safeguarding, wellbeing and learning considerations.

Our latest guide supports parents, carers and educators in understanding how AI chatbots work and how to help young people use them responsibly.

The guide explores:
• Inaccurate information and the need for critical evaluation
• Inappropriate content and age-related concerns
• Academic dishonesty and over-reliance
• Emotional dependency and blurred boundaries
• Data privacy risks and safe use of settings

With clear, practical advice, this resource helps adults support safe, balanced and informed AI use.
