Book excerpt: As a social worker and foster carer, I am inspired sometimes and frustrated often. In this book Adrian skilfully challenges statutory and voluntary complexities asking us to consider a simple question "does this work for this child?" For those that have considered fostering or have fostered, for those that have dedicated themselves to improving outcomes for vulnerable children....... there is no quick fix or even a 'right way' but just wonky wheels that need reinventing. Here Adrian skilfully challenges statutory and voluntary complexities but through it all inspires all of us to question "are we listening to the child & each other and is this working?" Blair Mortimer Bsc Social Work. Statuary social worker. Adrian is a believer in God and in people. His real-life stories from fostering are told in a raw and honest way. At a time when more foster homes are needed than ever before there are surely many who will be inspired by his humour and vulnerability to dare to start the journey into fostering for themselves. Both joys and challenges will lie ahead but Adrian has shown that there are many who will one day look back at their lives and thank God for precious memories of the little things you did, and said, and quite simply the fact that you were there - for them.
