FCA Scotland support local food bank

FCA Scotland foster carers and staff raised funds and contributed supplies to a local food bank and our young people helped prepare the supplies to be delivered. 

FCA Scotland were delighted to have seven of our young people come along to a participation event.  After having delicious pizzas delivered for dinner, our young people were happy to help us prepare a contribution for the local food bank.  These items have been collected by young people, foster carers and staff over the last few months.  We also raised £126.00 from our prize raffle at our recent 20th anniversary celebration and spent this money on further supplies to be included within this donation.

We then had a good discussion with the young people about future event planning for next year, as well as hearing some of their ideas for future fundraising / charity opportunities including bake sales, charity walks and Easter Egg campaigns.  These will be discussed further at our next participation event.

FCA Scotland would like to say a huge thank you to our young people, foster carers and staff for their generous donations enabling us to make this contribution to the food bank, and to our young people for helping us to prepare these supplies to be delivered.

Can I foster if I’m single?

Of course! A lot of our foster carers at FCA Scotland are single men, women or parents.

Can I foster if I’m gay?

You can definitely foster no matter your sexuality. We are proud to welcome LGBTQ foster carers, so find out more about joining FCA Scotland today!

Am I too old to start fostering?

There is no upper age limit to becoming a foster carer, as long as you are able to care for a child and meet their needs.

Disability and fostering

Right now we have many foster carers on our team with a physical disability or mental health condition, so there’s no reason you shouldn’t apply.
