In this episode of Voices of Fostering, Helen sits down with Suzanne — a foster carer who has just celebrated her one-year anniversary.
Inspired by her own mum's fostering journey, Suzanne left a 16-year career in retail management to pursue what she now calls her "calling." She opens up about:
- 🏠 What inspired her to become a foster carer
- 📋 The thorough (and sometimes nerve-wracking!) assessment and panel process
- 💡 How her perceptions of fostering changed in her first year
- ❤️ The reality of caring for children with difficult prior experiences
- 🤝 The power of community, training, and support through a fostering agency
Whether you're considering fostering or just curious about what life as a foster carer really looks like, Suzanne's honest and heartfelt story will inspire you.
