In this video, Mockingbird Home Hub Carer Adam talks about what fostering means to him—bringing a child into your home, caring for them, and helping them get a good start in life.
He explains how the Mockingbird model works: it’s a support network built around a central hub carer who brings foster families together. Adam describes it as feeling like one big extended family, where carers and children connect, support each other, and build relationships that make a real difference.
For children, it’s a chance to meet others in similar situations, helping them feel less alone and more understood.
Adam says “Mockingbird is about community, connection, and making sure no one feels like they’re on their own”.
