"We have had an SGO for our Great granddaughter. She is 16 yrs old now. We have child benefit, it unjust that it's deducted from our little allowance. We are on a fixed income as we are pensioners, 78 and 80 and have to use what's left of our savings to make ends meet"
I may be his gramma but my love for this young man is just as a mother's love. To all kinship carers out there I want you to know they appreciate your love and you are more than a plaster you are their rock, warrior, protector and their everything and one day they will thank you
Mother's Day can be awkward for many carers and children with mixed emotions and confusion especially for some of our children. We at KCUK appreciate you for what you do regardless of the title. A big thank you to the author of the original poem. Thank you @Donnaweaver_
Happy #InternationalWomen's Day all you wonderful International Women. A big shout out to all kinship carers that have sacrificially put their lives & future plans on hold to raise other people's children. Society holds you in their dept for your kindness.
In the #kinshipcare debate yesterday, MPs raised the postcode lottery faced by families. @alistrathern shared our new research which found over a third of local authorities in England are failing to set out how they will support kinship families in their area. Watch here 👇

We understand that local authorities are financially struggling BUT when a child has been placed in care, it's your obligation to make sure the child has the therapy it needs to overcome years of abuse & neglect. These children matter.
