Member News: Going on holiday with Team Fostering

It’s that time of year where the school summer holidays are creeping up faster than you can say ‘hold my ice-cream’.

For many families it conjures up memories of long sunny days (ok, it’s the UK so maybe less of the sunny), holidays at the beach, amusement arcades and more sweets than you can shake a stick at. 

But that’s not the case for all children. Some coming to Team Fostering will have no or limited experience of the joys of a family holiday.

That’s why - as part of our not-for-profit status - Team Fostering invests money into taking carers and children away on a Team holiday each year. Not only giving children an opportunity to experience new things but giving carers the chance to come together for support too.  

Earlier this year we headed off to Filey with the Yorkshire and East Midlands Team whilst those in the North East region went to Flamingo Land – enjoying four nights of fun with a combination of organised activities and free time. 

Although the weather might have been a bit of a wash out, the experiences certainly weren’t, creating memories to last a lifetime.
