Pioneering Stockport fostering project wins UK charity award
Councillor Colin Foster, Cabinet Member for Children, Family Services and Education, said: “We are proud that Stockport is part of such an innovative fostering program, a sustainable new way of delivering foster care here in Stockport. Congratulations to everyone involved in the program, we are delighted to have won in this category.”
The Mockingbird program, which delivers the Mockingbird Family Model originally developed by The Mockingbird Society in America in 2004, is run by the UK’s leading fostering charity, The Fostering Network, and part-funded by the Department for Education. The program now comprises 39 partners and 61 constellations across Great Britain.
