Fostering heads for crisis

11 August 2010, 12:00am

The care system is under unprecedented pressure because of the increasing number of children needing foster homes and a shortage of foster carers, a charity warns.

Bursting at the Seams, a new report by the Fostering Network, points to a shortage of 10,000 foster carers; many fostering services are asking carers to work outside of their area of expertise. Visit www.fostering.net/resources.
