Cumberland Council has planted a series of trees across the region in a symbolic gesture of unwavering commitment to care experienced young people as they enter adulthood.
Adjusting to independent adult life can be a major challenge for young people leaving foster or council care. Cumberland Council has launched an innovative hub to help young people start their futures on the right track.
Cumbria Fostering is pleased to announce that Cumberland Council and Westmorland and Furness Council are among five local authorities to receive funding of more than £1m to boost foster carer recruitment in the region.
The incredible achievements of our young people in care and those who support them were celebrated at the 10th Annual ‘Celebrating Us’ Children in Care Council (CiCC) Awards on Saturday
Cumbria Fostering is supporting Kinship Care Week 2023, which launches today, Monday 2 October, with a campaign to celebrate more than 400 kinship carers across Cumbria who are raising children who are not their own.
Cumbria Fostering is set to launch its latest recruitment campaign across the county tomorrow (26 September) with the release of a powerful new film created in collaboration with more than 80 other local authority fostering services.
