"The rewards of seeing a child as develop and grow are just phenomenal"

Image of Grace and NettyGrace Goodbean and Netty Reddish have been approved as foster carers for nine and seven years respectively:

"It is great to have the chance to give some stability and security to children even for a little while, as they might see that life could be different. We wanted to offer a different view of the world. Life can be fair, and you can have healthy loving relationships.

People are very quick to judge children. They see the behaviour but they don't see where it comes from, or as a means to communicate. They miss that the child is doing the best that they can. They haven't had the opportunity to learn how to behave, so how would they know?"
