Hello, I'm Sarah

I grew up in Newcastle and my family still live there, so my links with the North East are still strong.

I moved to London as a teenager and met my husband there, we lived happily in London, our four children were born and grew up in London, they are now adults. We recently welcomed our first grandchild. As a family we moved to the countryside in 2010 and have comfortably adapted to rural life.

I have worked within a fostering environment for over twenty years. For thirteen years I managed a contact service for "looked after children" most of whom lived in the foster homes of the agency I worked for. This involved liaising with birth parents, family members, foster carers and social workers, to ensure that contact was a positive experience for the children.

Nine years ago the agency I worked for became part of Futures group and I've continued to work with them in fostering.

Please feel free to call me at a time to suit you I'm always pleased to talk about fostering, it's challenges and rewards. I look forward to hearing from you.
