| Experience
Storke Speciality |
She is a very experience carer who brings to the role of fostering her own unique experiences, which provides her with an excellent insight into the needs of some children placed in her care. Female carer from a history of abuse, its disclosure and recovery, and her experience of living with her late husband, who had been through a past of increasing desability and the impact that may have on a young person, especially where that disability occurs in early childhood or adolescence.
The journey of acceptance and moving forward for this couple has been remarkable in the extreme. Taking an impossible situation and turning it around, seeing the positives within, makes this couple very special.
The couple has great insight into the difficulties faced by some children and the rationale that results in them sometimes needing to be cared for by people other than their parents or family members.
