"Our call is absolutely a call to governments across the UK to make sure that they are properly funding local authorities.
"If we don't fund the foster care system we know that long-term outcomes for children will not be as good as they could be and that will have additional costs for the state."Saduf Chaudhri has been fostering for 10 years and is currently a foster carer for two young boys. While praising her current social worker, Ms Chaudhri said that care-giving services nationwide are"relying on goodwill"."It's not just foster caring, it's across the board - as a society we need to look at this and look at who we value and how we support people that are really keeping society going."
