The fostering community, friends and supporters are taking to the streets, lanes and country paths to show their support for The Fostering Network, during Foster Care Fortnight, 15 -28 May. By taking part in Foster Walk, you can join hundreds of people across the UK, helping to make foster care the best it can be.

Today, there are over 70,000 children and young people living in foster care across the UK. And every 20 minutes another child comes into care in need of a foster family. Our amazing fostering community provides them with safe and loving homes for as long as they need. Lets make this our biggest walk yet, for them!

Your support will help The Fostering Network provide vital support, advice and training to foster carers so they can provide the best possible care. And it will help us encourage and support more people to foster, to meet the shortage of thousands we are facing today.

Quite simply, foster care transforms lives. By joining us, you will contribute to growing and strengthening the fostering community and help make fostering the best it can be.

You can set your own goals and complete your challenge any time during the Foster Care Fortnight. But we would love to see as many people as possible walk in their local communities on Saturday 20 May 2023 at 10am.

Thank you so much for your efforts and for spreading the word about Foster Walk 2023!
