Packaging Christmas cheer for foster care families

Centacare Foster Care has bundled up the spirit of Christmas to spread joy to households across Adelaide.

Creating a circle of care

The saying ‘it takes a village to raise a child’ certainly rings true for an Adelaide Hills mother and daughter duo who are joining forces as foster carers for a young child with complex needs.

A little love goes a long way

Demand for foster carers in South Australia is at an all-time high as more and more children are identified as ‘at risk’ by the authorities. One Adelaide couple doing their best to give these children a better start in life is Lyn and Roy Matthews. They spoke to JENNY BRINKWORTH about the rewarding experience of being part of Centacare’s foster care program.
