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.
