Hi! I'm Christine and I've been a full time foster carer for seven years. I'm going to China next year, to do a sponsored trek along part of the Great Wall! I've never done anything like this before but here I am, little old me, trying to make a BIG difference to the lives of the 51,000 children and young people in foster care. It's satisfying to see the children achieve their potential as they progress to adulthood and independance.

I am a member of the charity "The Fostering Network" which is the UK's leading charity for everyone involved in fostering. (see www.fostering.net for more info). As this relies on donations, hopefully some of you will support this event. One way is to donate via this JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my page! Wish me luck!
