SWAN Fostering Testimonials

SWAN Fostering foster carers exceeded all expectation in their role as foster carers to A. Their consistent dedication to A’s welfare goes beyond the end of A’s placement as both carers have expressed an interest in maintaining communication with A and offering ongoing support if she should need it. Contact is often a difficult part of the care plan to fulfil with carers that are not able to or are not committed to
facilitating it. SWAN Fostering’s foster carers were instrumental in ensuring that A had contact with her family and organising and facilitating additional contacts with her siblings.

I have been fostering for six-months. It’s like having a best friend sleeping over for a long time. I love it because I have a person, other than my sister, to do activities with like, going out on walks, going to town, and talking to each other. But when we get a new child everything might change because everyone has a different personality and comes from a different place. I look forward to the years' ahead and meeting new
friends. - testimonial by a foster carers own child
