How difficult is it to become a foster carer and what is being done to

Stealing Carers
Are some independent providers 'poaching' carers already
fostering in the private sector, putting the development of children at

Money Money Money
The money foster carers receive varies widely across different agencies. What impact do fees have on the care of the children? Are carers fostering for the money?

A Living Nightmare
One in three foster carers face an allegation of abuse. Are carers receiving enough support while being investigated? How are investigations handled?

The End Game
With young people in care more likely to end up in a police cell than at university, are young people being given enough support when they leave foster care?
