Love – that’s what fostering is all about. As local foster carer Sue explains: “These kids don’t want money, they don’t want things – they just want love and attention, and they want your time.”
Oxfordshire County Council’s fostering team is actively seeking people with big hearts to step into this vital role. Becoming a foster carer is an opportunity to change a child’s life, offering them the love and stability they deserve.
Whether you’re based in Ardington, Grove, or any other part of the Wantage area, you can make a difference. If foster care appeals to you, or you want to learn more about how to get started, visit the Oxfordshire County Council fostering page for details.
