Animals and Fostering

We’re celebrating the animals that help with fostering

Pets can really help traumatised children to settle in and open up. Thank you for your great fostering family pet pics, keep them coming!

Foster Carer Anne combines fostering and working in Equine Assisted Therapy:

“We had one boy with us for 3 years and the effect that being with the horses, cats and dogs had on him was the inspiration for my retraining and setting up our equine assisted learning centre EAQ Mid Somerset“.

The methods from EAQ, we now use on a day to day basis with the foster children that come to us on respite.
