Fostering Wellbeing is an innovative programme, funded by Welsh Government and delivered by The Fostering Network, which aims to improve wellbeing outcomes for children and young people.
The programme promotes an equality of status for everyone involved in the ‘team around the child’, including foster carers. It encourages professionals to work together with a joint approach, creating a shared language and allowing best practice to move across service boundaries.
It does this through two main elements:
- Five online masterclasses - to enable foster carers and other professionals in the team around the child to gain the skills and confidence needed to help inspire children and young people to fulfil their potential through a one team approach.
- Pioneer foster carers - experienced foster carers who, in addition to the skills and experience they will bring to the role, will receive training and support to help them cascade learning within their service.
