“Loved that Capstone took us to Airhop, my foster child and biological child had a blast. They met other foster children and started forming friends. The perfect activity for a Summer holiday. Wild Place was great too. We got to see lots of animals and more importantly, I was able to get to know other carers from across my region collectively sharing and learning from our fostering experiences so far. The kids had a great time together and because they had met before at other Capstone activities during the Summer they were comfortable with each other from the start. Lots of walking equalled tired kids… the best kind of day!” Jemma, South West carer With no school and a break in routine the Summer holidays can be a challenging time! So our South West team organised a number of days trips that not only kept the children occupied but allowed our carers to unwind, get to know each other and build their regional networks. Together we visited four attractions across the South West to include AirHop, Wild Place, Noah’s Ark Farm Park and Uphill Beach and with a number of foster families attending more than one event throughout the Summer, fun was definitely had by all!
