Currently, Birmingham is home to over 1,300 children in care, and across England, around 37% of children with siblings are separated from their brothers or sisters when placed in care. Nexus Fostering is urgently seeking new carers to provide safe, nurturing homes, including for teenagers, sibling groups, and children with additional needs.
