The Fostering Network keeps saying it - and those in power
still seem to be ignoring it.
As Fostering Fortnight approaches, the shortage of
foster parents in the UK continues apace with an estimated 8,750 new foster
families needed across the UK in 2012.
A child needs a foster family every 22 minutes according to
the Fostering Network. Government needs to come up with an urgent plan to
ensure that an appropriate placement is always available.
