A campaign has been launched by Warwickshire County Council to inspire people to engage in its specialist fostering schemes.

The Written Together campaign, developed by the official local authority foster care service has built an offer that provides support, specialist training and financial recognition for carers supporting children or young people with complex needs.

"Every child deserves the chance to thrive, and specialist foster carers have the power to help make that happen," Cllr Wayne Briggs said.

At the heart of the initiative is a short film, shot at locations across Warwickshire following a teacher, social worker and healthcare professional as they help children through difficulty in their working lives.

"By strengthening our offer into specialist fostering, we hope to attract more people with valuable professional experience and give more children the opportunity to remain close to their communities, schools and support networks," he said.

Warwickshire Fostering is looking for carers across its schemes including Breathing Space, a salaried program designed to help vulnerable children who need a short-term home.

Other supported programs include Solo, Emergency Duty and Treehouse, all designed to help children or young adults throughout Warwickshire.

The campaign takes its name from the belief that positive futures are built through relationships, trust, consistency and care.
