We are very pleased to have made a £500 donation to Hornets Boxing Club in Ramsgate. The boxing club greatly welcomes the donation enabling them to support and train local children in the community.
Head Coach and founder, Chris Daley along with his wife, Nicola have been foster carers for 25 years, helping countless children and families. Chris said:
“We’re just delighted to receive this donation from FosterCare UK and receive it with very many thanks. My work both as a foster carer and head coach at the club enables me to help build young people’s self-esteem and confidence and so for my two worlds to come together with this donation seems very fitting.”
As well as helping foster children, Chris and Nicola specialise in parent and child fostering where parents (mother, father or both), are placed in foster care together along with their baby for support and guidance. The aim of parent and child foster care placements are for the parents to go on to independently care for their child wherever possible. Chris and Nicola have helped many families remain together over the years and they still keep in touch with most of the parents/children they have helped.
Director, FosterCare UK, Richard Compton-Burnett says:
“Chris and Nicola are such valued and experienced members of our team of foster carers. As well as the incredible difference they have made to children and families, we greatly admire the work Chris does in the local community through the boxing club and so it’s a real pleasure to be able to make this donation.”
