A heartfelt poem by a child in foster care reflects on their relationship with foster carer Dave, whom they call a “second-hand dad.” Dave emphasizes that fostering is about providing stability and care, not replacing anyone. The poem, shared for Foster Care Fortnight, highlights the positive impacts of foster care, encouraging others to consider joining the community. BCP Council’s cabinet member praised foster carers like Dave and announced virtual information sessions for those interested in fostering. The sessions aim to reduce apprehension and offer support, along with resources available through BCP’s fostering team.
