The Couple with 28 children
Foster carers who have looked after 25 children in 20 years are urging others to get involved with fostering as figures show there are 833 children in the county in need of loving homes.
Julie and John Worsfold, from Droitwich Spa, began fostering when Julie nearly died after suffering seven miscarriages and an ectopic pregnancy.
Julie, 57, and John, 52, say they are driven by their desire to “give something back” and offer children and young people a loving environment in which to grow and feel safe. They currently care for three young people – aged 12, 16 and 18 – and describe fostering as “the best job on the planet.”
