Fostering in Newham
According to DfE (Departement for Education), there were 72,670 in care at the end of March 2017. This is an increase of 3% from 2016. To support and find a loving family for these children the need to foster is ever growing. According to one “child in waiting”, “I don’t want a family but I need one”.
