As Foster Care Fortnight 2025 continues, Alistair and Ben return for their second video in our mini-series, The Power of Relationships.
This time, they focus on one of the most important elements of successful fostering: communication. From honest, open conversations between foster carers and children to strong, supportive communication between carers and the fostering agency, Alistair and Ben highlight how vital it is to talk, listen, and work together.
They also share how helping each other—whether it’s emotional support, shared experiences, or just being present—makes all the difference in creating stable, loving foster homes.
