Fostering is everything
We are committed to helping children and young people to thrive.
What you do with your life could forever change someone else’s. You can support local children and young people to thrive in a nurturing environment.
We need more people to step forward and become foster carers. Start your journey today.
'Everything' shows Mike, a foster carer, and his family celebrating his birthday. At the party, the children - who have now grown up - reflect on their childhoods with Mike. After an uneasy start when they first met Mike, and a few bumps along the way, their relationships grew. You can really see how Mike's care helped shape them into the people they are today.
We also see the role Mike's own son plays in the children's development. Showing just how big of an impact foster families have on the child, and how rewarding the experience can be.
The film was produced by a partnership of over 100 councils, managed by public sector media partner CAN.
