Campaign to recruit new foster families must go on
11 June 2025
Our Executive Director, Sandy Mayhew, was interviewed by The Herald to talk about fostering in Scotland. Together with foster carers, we provide safe, loving homes for children and young people who are unable to live with their birth families. This was a great opportunity for Kibble Fostering to bring attention to how we help change lives and create families across the country.
We have a excerpt of the interview with Sandy below:
“John Lewis helped to put fostering services back on the map with its highly praised Christmas advert of 2022, and this was a platform that we – as a sector – could only have dreamt of. The most anticipated Christmas advert of the year dedicated its spot on the national stage to raising awareness of fostering. Unbelievable.
Almost three years later, the question is: have we, as a sector, capitalised on the momentum sparked during that festive period – or was the advert merely a flash in the pan, raising awareness but failing to create any lasting impact?”
