Strengthening Support for Our Foster Carers, including initiatives like the Mockingbird program in South Gloucestershire.
We’re boosting the support we offer to foster carers in South Gloucestershire. Alongside competitive fees and allowances, we provide high-quality training and a wide range of support services.
Now, we’re going further by introducing The Fostering Network’s Mockingbird Family Model. This award-winning approach strengthens the support available to foster carers, children, and young people in care.
We believe it takes a community—not just one family—to raise a child. The Mockingbird model reflects this. It’s built like an extended family, offering strong relationships and a reliable support network that helps everyone feel connected and cared for.
