Other same sex foster carers in home counties?

[fireside]

We've met quite a few foster carers who are great and supportive, but are starting to come across issues which are specific to us being a same sex couple - mainly to do with schools.....would be great to have some others in a similar boat to bounce ideas off.....any one out there?

Hiya, not in the same situation as you but have you had a look at the Foster talk or Foster network websites? I think they might have forums too, which could be a good place to get advice

Hi. You could check with your SSW if your LA/IFA offer membership to New Family Social if not you can join for £4 per month. They provide support (online forums/events) to LGBT adoptive parents and foster carers. Website is www.newfamilysocial.org.uk
