In 2021 69,807 children were living with around 55,510 foster families across the UK. The Fostering Network says 9,265 new foster families are needed. Record levels of enquiries were received between April 2020 and March 2021 with 160,635 expressions of interest in England. However, only six per cent went on to apply to foster. Some councils are offering welcome payments.
