Episode 229 - Mark Owers and Fostering Consultation

from The Adoption and Fostering Podcast · host Al Coates & Scott Casson-Rennie

Hello and Welcome to the A&F podcast.  This week we've asked Mark Owers to come onto the podcast to talk all things fostering in light of the DfE's released consultation and changes to the national fostering standards.  We cover a broad range of topics relating to fostering including reframing practice around carer's voices and experience, stewardship, recruitment and more.  You can complete the consultation here.  Here is a link to Mark's LinkedIn profile where you can read more of his insights and perspectives.  As always if you’ve experience of adoption, fostering or special guardianship from any perspective personal or professional and would like share that on the podcast please get in touch through the Facebook page, BlueSky or email us at [email protected]
