Zuleika - a foster care leaver's story

Zuleika

For 13 years, Zuleika's fostering family have shown her what having a family feels like. She talks about how she felt when she first arrived at her new home, why she has enjoyed being part of a fostering family, the challenges she has faced and who inspires her.  

They've stuck with me through it all, and I'm very grateful for that. I appreciate them for letting me have a family

Fostering a child can be a rewarding and fulfilling experience for anyone with a passion for helping others. It’s not always easy, but the rewards come from seeing the positive difference you can make for some of the most vulnerable children and young people. Nexus Fostering offers foster carers round-the-clock support 365 days a year, a comprehensive programme of training, and a competitive allowance and benefits in recognition of the support you provide to the child(ren) in your care.

If you can help children and young people feel safe, loved, and wanted enquire now.
