A BROMSGROVE organisation is urging residents to foster new ideas about caring for children.
Potential carers are invited to learn more about welcoming youngsters into their homes when Foster Care Associates, based in Stoke Prior, holds an information day at Merry Hill shopping centre in Brierley Hill.
On Sunday, between 10am and 5pm, anyone who has previously fostered, carried out professional youth work or been involved in child care, can meet experts and gather more information.
Foster carers look after children who cannot live with their parents because of neglect, abuse or removal from home by social services.
Foster Care Associates, in Brickhouse Lane, provides full support for all foster carers by offering 24 hour support, training, activities, holidays, practical support, education and therapy for children.
Anyone interested in finding out more can call 0800 085 2225.
