'Difficulties' prompt foster homes pledge

摘要

The Government has pledged to reform foster care rules, after charities warned it was becoming more difficult to find people to look after teenagers and disabled children. The Fostering Network revealed this week that three in five fostering services urgently needed more carers to look after teenagers. According to the charity, 80% of services also reported a growing need for homes for siblings, and 45% required more foster carers for disabled children.
