Celebrating the valuable contributions made by foster carers in Leitrim

TUSLA Child and Family Agency hosted a Coffee Morning on Wednesday, March 15 in Cryan’s Hotel, Carrick-on-Shannon to celebrate the valuable contributions made by foster carers and their families in our community.

The event was attended by some of our current foster carers and also those interested in learning about the process involved in becoming a foster carer.

Social workers from the Foster Care Resource Service, Sligo/Leitrim/West Cavan were on hand to answer questions.
