Are you the one? There are 2.3 million vulnerable children known to social services in the UK, many of whom are now at heightened risk resulting from lockdown policies. Families are under pressure and children are not being seen as regularly, if at all, by teachers and social workers.
There is an expectation throughout the sector that many thousands of children will come into care in the next few months – both now in an emergency situation, and when time passes as children return to their regular routines.
Home for Good is engaging with local authorities to harness the power of faith communities to respond to the need for more foster families.
