Mick and Pauline Davis
The day we were approved to become foster carers was very exciting and then meeting our first young person was just as amazing. We’ve now been fostering for over 10 years and fostered two children long term and several children for respite in that time.
Our foster children have often been through a lot in their young lives. They want you to advocate for them, to stand in their corner, to show them that they are cared for and looked after. Family is so important to us. We make every foster child part of the family as soon as they come to us. All our foster children have grown up around our grandchildren and other foster children, so they have an extended family that they can keep in touch with.

How to become a foster carer
