The Adoption and Fostering Podcast
Kids & Family:Parenting
In this episode we speak to Sandy Harper who is looking to carry out research on the impact of fostering on foster carers. We're also joined by, friend of the show and foster carer, Ema Mortimer to offer some lived experience and insight.
Sandy would like to hear from foster carers about what stresses and challenges they experience, and what strengths, resilience, and reflective abilities they have to be able to persevere. If you'd like to be involved it the research it is an anonymous study and you need to email Sandy at alexandra.harper@hmc.ox.ac.uk
We chat about the general experience of foster carers and some of the specific challenges and difficulties that are often faced by carers. We also engage in humour, banter, talk about fridge inspections and Tim the hamster, you know the usual stuff!
As always we're very happy to hear from you all and if you want to get in touch please email us at aandfpodcast@gmail.com or through our Twitter or Facebook page.
As always, thanks for listening and you can also listen to the podcast:
