Calling all Healthcare professionals: Could you foster?

Calling all Healthcare professionals: Could you foster?

This month, our fostering campaign is turning its attention to the incredible healthcare professionals who dedicate their careers to caring for others.

Running from Monday 17 August to Sunday 30 August, the campaign shines a spotlight on doctors, nurses, paramedics, healthcare assistants, therapists, community nurses and wider NHS colleagues.

Healthcare professionals use qualities such as care, compassion, observation, reassurance and advocacy every day. This campaign highlights how those same qualities could make a life-changing difference to a child through fostering.

Using familiar healthcare objects as visual metaphors, the campaign explores the many ways foster carers help children feel safe, secure, listened to and supported. Just as healthcare professionals provide comfort and reassurance during challenging moments, foster carers play a vital role in helping children navigate uncertainty and build confidence for the future.

If you work in healthcare, or know someone who does, you could already have many of the qualities that make a great foster carer.

Follow along with the campaign on our Facebook and Instagram pages, and please share with anyone you think could be a great fit for fostering.
