Find out about fostering at home

Sarah Mason 28th Apr, 2026   0

POTENTIAL foster carers can find out the facts from the comfort of their homes following the re-launch of monthly virtual information sessions.

Foster for Solihull is hosting a no obligation opportunity for people thinking about fostering, to hear from a current foster carer, along with a member of the fostering team at Solihull Council.

The next call runs on Wednesday (April 29), 7pm to 8pm, with subsequent sessions every single month.

The online video calls will help separate myths and assumptions from the reality of being a carer, arming attendees with insights and useful information to help in their decision-making process.

Neelam Ahmed, fostering recruitment team manager, said: “The virtual information evenings are an ideal way to ask any questions about fostering, to one of the experienced members of our fostering team, here in Solihull.

“It’s also an ideal opportunity for us to provide information about the many different types of fostering, which are required to provide the secure and loving home needed for Solihull children in care.




“If you have space in your heart, and space in your home and want to learn more about fostering – we’d love to welcome you onto one of our online information sessions.”
