Hidden in Plain Sight: Foster Carer’s Mental Health
Foster Care Uncovered di Sarah Anderson & Louise Allen
Note sull'episodio
In this episode, Sarah and Louise start up a crucial conversation - the mental health of foster carers.
Behind the role is constant emotional labour, exposure to trauma, and the pressure to keep going, even when it’s hard. They explore how this affects carers over time, the signs to look out for, and why so many people feel they have to carry it quietly.
Because if we want stable homes and a secure base for children and young people, we have to start by recognising and supporting the people providing them.
