Fostering Events

Foster Care Fortnight – 12 to 25 May 2025

Celebrating The Power of Relationships

Foster Care Fortnight is the UK’s biggest campaign to raise awareness of fostering, and this year’s theme is The Power of Relationships. It celebrates the important bonds that form between foster parents and children, within fostering families, and across the wider community.

From 12 to 25 May, we’ll be out and about across Wolverhampton, sharing real stories, answering your questions, and encouraging more people to think about fostering. Whether you’re just curious or ready to take the next step, we’d love to meet you.
