Bella is the daughter of foster carers and she has joined a group which, with the help of pedagogic social workers from the Head, Heart, Hands programme, organises events for fostered and birth children.

I hope you had a lovely summer. We did. I looked after two separate sibling groups. Hard work but great fun. We had lots of days out. While in one adventure park I stood next to a woman who spoke rather loudly when talking to her three young boys who appeared to be quite a handful. One thing that struck me was that she used third person when talking to them, referring to herself as Mummy – ‘Mummy told you to stay in sight,’ instead of ‘I told you to stay in sight,’ which to my ears grated.

I am Tony Round, and I am head of fundraising at The Fostering Network. I am fortunate enough to be able to work for a charity that dedicates itself to helping make life better for foster carers and fostered children and young people in care, and I want to help even more foster carers and children, so I am running the Royal Parks Half Marathon.
