A CAMPAIGN has been launched to find 50 new foster carers in Bournemouth over the next two years.
Bournemouth council has embarked on a new recruitment campaign to appeal for people to come forward and offer a loving and caring home for children of all ages.
“There are many myths about foster caring out there which can deter some in our community from considering themselves as potential foster carers,” said Cllr Blair Crawford. “Families, same sex couples and single people are equally capable of providing a much-needed environment for children from six months to 18 years of age.”
