On Thursday 4th May our foster carers took part in West Cheshire and North Wales Chamber of Commerce Golf Day at Macdonald Portal Hotel Golf & Spa.
Foster carers Brian, Dave, Heath, Jason, Jim, Glyn, Paul, and Paula joined us for the golf day. They were split into two teams and enjoyed an 18- Hole Championship Golf Course, breakfast and 2 course dinner.
Paula signed herself up for the golf day having never played golf before but she thoroughly enjoyed her first experience and the opportunity to meet with other carers. Paula’s team mates Glyn, Jason and Paul helped Paula understand the basics and they are now planning to rent out Paula’s holiday home in Fuerteventura with their fostering family.
The foster carers foster with Warrington Borough Council and Cheshire West and Chester Council so being on mixed teams allowed the perfect opportunity to socialise. Jason and Paul found out they are neighbours and now there are a few foster carers living close by they plan to put together their own golf team!
Foster4 sponsored the competitions and prizes for the golf day. Supervising Social Workers Jenny, Christian and Elaine joined us for the dinner. At the dinner we had the opportunity to introduce ourselves, present the prizes and encourage those attending to help us recruit more foster carers.
