It is a heartbreaking reality for many of the children we have cared for across West Sussex that, due to their birth family’s health, they need foster care. 🫶
We are looking for someone with a space in their heart and home to welcome Ben, Luke, and Tom into their family.
Due to Mum experiencing serious health issues and receiving ongoing palliative care, we are seeking long-term Foster Carers for three brothers, Tom, aged 11, Ben, aged 9, and Luke, aged 4. They have all expressed how important their brothers are to them and keeping them together will nurture their bond further.
Tom has taken on something of a paternal role for his younger brothers and needs trusted adults with whom he can share his worries. He enjoys going to school and has a small friendship group who he spends time with at break. He also likes playing games on his console with his brothers.
Ben loves playing football and going to the park. He needs strong routines and likes to be told of any changes to regular plans to help reduce his anxiety. He has processing difficulties and is currently waiting for an EHCP assessment.
Luke enjoys nursery and is looking forward to starting school in September, though he will need a good bedtime routine, and lots of sleep so he has enough energy for learning. He needs safe adults to talk to and to care of him so he can communicate his worries to them when he feels sad.
If you, or anyone you know, would like to foster and help children like Ben, Luke and Tom, we'd love to hear from you today ➡️ https://fosteringwestsussex.org.uk/contact-us/
