Meet Sara
Sara Turner, from Northwood, became a foster carer to make a difference to a child's life by providing love, support and care at a vital time in their lives.
"The children, they make it special. You just feel that you're that bridge that is guiding them until they go on to their, hopefully, better life."
Foster carers
Lydia and Jonathan
"The support from the council has been fantastic throughout. From the moment our foster child moved in with us we had regular visits and phone calls, and we still do now."
Rachel and Damian
"It was very daunting to begin with but very quickly we settled into a routine and fostering has made us a closer family."
Mobeena and Wajid
"We have plenty of love to give and a warm home. We felt we could better provide that for the child once our own children were older."
Roy and Filomena
"When their little hand goes into yours, you know you've done it and they get to be a part of your family."
Daren
"Nothing has been better than watching these children grow and become something. It's really, really the most rewarding thing I have done."
Zena
"Watching each child grow and seeing the end result instills a real sense of pride, but the biggest reward is seeing a child happy and safe."
Hayat
"The biggest reward I get is seeing my foster child changing, and seeing her looking forward to her future."
Lynne and Michael
"At the end of each day, we know we have done our best for the children, and that's really fulfilling."
