SUMMARY:Speak with us about why we need to keep local children in care rooted in Reading
DESCRIPTION:In Reading\, we don’t have enough foster carers to look after the children and young people in care in our borough. We are looking for people locally to consider welcoming young people into their safe and secure home. This means children in care can stay at their school\, near their friends and everything they know\, minimising disruption at an already difficult time in their lives. \nIf you would like to find out what it’s really like to foster\, this is information session is for you. One of our foster carers will join us for an informal chat about what fostering is all about. They’ll tell their story about how they became a foster carer and what it’s been like for them. Feel bring to bring a cup of tea and a biscuit. \nThis is an online session where you can ask our carers what you want to know about fostering. It could be anything! \n\nWhat was your first night of fostering like?\nWhat is it like to share your home?\nDo you have your own children? What do they think?\n\nNo question is too silly\, so please do join us. Email us for the link.

SUMMARY:Rooted in Reading anniversary
DESCRIPTION:Did you know\, we have a special tree planted outside Reading’s Town Hall? It was planted on 17 February 2020 and we celebrate these day every year with our young people in care. Perhaps you could make a visit to the tree? \nHere’s the story of why it was planted: \nWhen a 14-year-old boy moved to his permanent foster home last year\, he came up with an idea to help himself – and others like him – keep their roots in Reading. \nAs an active member of Brighter Futures for Children’s Children in Care Council\, he suggested a tree would help him\, and others just like him\, feel ‘rooted’ in the town. \nHe wanted a tree that would ‘grow fast and tall\, live a long time and have pinky white blossom that would flutter down in the wind.’ \nCatie Blundell\, Brighter Futures for Children’s participation officer\, wanted to make this happen for him and others like him\, so she worked in partnership with Ethical Reading and its innovative Trees for Reading initiative. \nSince the tree was planted\, we have renewed our search for local foster carers so we can help Reading’s young people to stay rooted in the town. To learn more\, give us a call on 0118 469 3020 or contact us.

SUMMARY:Learn about short breaks
DESCRIPTION:Families who have children with physical or learning disabilities need a break from round-the-clock care. Parents can become exhausted\, stressed and isolated from looking after their child.\n\nWe are looking for people to give families some respite by providing their child with a short break\, usually at weekends or in school holidays.

SUMMARY:Online information session - Empty nesters
DESCRIPTION:It’s nearly October and across Reading\, hundreds of students may have left home to a fresh start at university or have moved out to start their career. \nThat means some parents have more time on their hands and spare rooms in their home! If you\, or anyone you know is missing the buzz of having children at home\, join our online information session to find out more about fostering. It’s a hugely rewarding vocation\, as any of our foster carers will tell you. \nWe’ll walk you though the basics of fostering\, and you’ll hear first-hand from one of our foster carers. \nEmail us today for a link to join.
