Neurodiversity Celebration Week starts today.
A worldwide initiative that challenges stereotypes and misconceptions about neurological differences. At Quality Foster Care, we believe no child should face discrimination due to being neurodiverse.
Let's transform how neurodivergent individuals are perceived by spreading awareness and sharing positive stories and messages.

Today is Care Day! 🙌
The world’s biggest celebration of children and young people is a big date in our diary.
This year's theme, chosen by our children, is ‘Don’t Forget Us’, aimed at their communities, and the professionals they come into contact with.
We can all do more to help children in care achieve more, and this year’s Care Day activities aim to educate on how best we can do that by learning more about what it’s like growing up in care.
Read all about how we are celebrating Care Day this year, and watch the ‘Don’t Forget Us’ video:

Tomorrow, 17 February, marks Random Acts of Kindness Day; a global event that is celebrated across the world.
Kindness has always been a big part of the work we do at Quality Foster Care.
Why not use this day to think of creative ways to be kind to others?
You could treat someone to a surprise cup of tea, make time to talk with someone who might be experiencing loneliness, write a thank you letter to someone you’re grateful to, or do a kind favour for someone who’s unwell.
There are so many ways in which we can show kindness. How will you brighten someone's day? 💛
