Updating foster care standards and guidance: views of children and young people

Overview

We want to update rules on fostering to improve the experience of children in care and foster families.

Why your views matter

We want to hear directly from children and young people about foster care.

Your views matter, and what you share will help us work out what is working well and what could be improved.

You can answer whatever questions you want to – there are no right or wrong answers. We want to know about your experiences, your ideas, and anything you think could help make foster care better for you and for other children like you.
