Sue

"Being a foster carer in Wakefield is great. There are support groups where all the foster carers get together and have a natter, and I have my own support worker who's wonderful."

Sue has been fostering for 22 years with her husband. They have their own children but they are all grown up and Sue missed the feeling of being needed so they started fostering.

Sue and her husband have fostered children of all ages but now look after babies up to 18 months.

Sue says: "I take great pleasure in watching the babies reach milestones and being a foster carer makes me feel needed and has amazing rewards. It takes commitment and you need to have a love of children, as well as a sense of humour!"
