Open Day success for St Christopher’s South Thames Fostering team

18 May 2009

On 14 May 2009, visitors to the new offices of St Christopher’s Fostering team in Thornton Heath were greeted by a colourful display of blue and yellow balloons and vases filled with blue and yellow flowers.

Attendees at the event included trustees and staff of St Christopher’s, colleagues from other agencies, several of our foster carers with the children they look after and a stream of members of the public, enthusiastic to find out how they could become foster carers for St Christopher’s.

Enquirers were able to talk directly to our foster carers about their experiences and were told that the support we offer to carers is fantastic. They were able to watch DVDs about the rewards and challenges involved and received information about the process of becoming approved as a carer.
