Foster carers are at the heart of East Renfrewshire's services for children and young people.
Whether giving comfort to others or expanding a family, each person or couple has their reasons for looking after others.

- These case studies are taken from an exhibition that was commissioned in spring 2023 to raise the profile of fostering in East Renfrewshire and attract new carers to the service. Anyone interested in fostering can contact fost@eastrenfreshire.gov.uk.
