The Mockingbird Family Model film edit in progress

Busy editing our film about The Mockingbird Family Model this month.

Filmed on location in London, Leeds, Doncaster, Oxford and Birmingham. This ten minute short will be showcased at the Mockingbird London conference in September. Following that it will be available on The Fostering Network and Mockingbird Society websites.

"It takes a village to bring up a child" as one of the foster carers says in the film. If you want to know more about this innovative new model for supporting Foster Carers and children in their care take a look when the film becomes available. It will also be here on our website.

Commissioned by The Fostering Network.

"Bringing together looked after children as a group in this way is unique. It allows them to use the arts explore issues related to being in care in a totally new way, with quite extraordinary results."
