Foster Care Fortnight

12 May - 25 May 2025

From 12 to 25 May 2025, we join The Fostering Network in celebrating Foster Care Fortnight 2025, highlighting the theme The power of relationships. This campaign shows powerful connections that transform the lives of children and young people in care. At Hampshire County Council, we recognize the impact of these relationships and invite you to join us in celebrating by attending our events and learning more about fostering. Discover how you can make a lasting difference in a young person's life by becoming a foster carer.
