While we are spending a lot of time at home, it can be hard to find ways to keep active and have fun. We’ve pulled together some physical and non-physical activities that you and your family can get involved in and fundraise for The Fostering Network. https://t.co/Ug0Dr2RA2Z

[Working Families @workingfamUK]

Have you been refused #furlough but can't work because of your caring or childcare responsibilities? After hearing from so many parents through our helpline, we've put together a handy guide to the steps you can take.

What can you do if you need to care for children because of schools closing or a Covid-19 case in your child's class?

NEW guidance confirms you can be furloughed for childcare. It can be flexible and you do not have to have been furloughed before. https://t.co/fH3eNoXKrg

During Sons and Daughters Month we asked sons and daughters of foster carers to share their views on fostering with us. What magical fostering moments will they remember for life? What do they think is the best thing about fostering? Here are their answers https://t.co/Yh38A43ujN

Have you seen the results from our recent employer member survey that shows the impact of COVID-19? The biggest challenges for employers were employee morale, engagement, communication, avoiding burnout and mental wellbeing. https://t.co/SRq0sM7I53

[Gingerbread @Gingerbread]

Interim findings of our #CaringWithoutSharing research on #SingleParents & #COVID19 shows single parents:
- More likely on lower incomes - mothers in coupled households on 2x single mothers' pay
- More likely to have lost jobs
- More likely furloughed.

If ever there was an advert for fostering it should be this picture, this moment and this man standing next to me ... we don’t need good posters, we need good people

We welcome @Ofstednews's research on matching in foster care, published today. It finds that good matches are something that can be developed through good practice. We are delighted to have been advisory board members for this research project. Full story: https://t.co/NNQO73mGDd
