Ryan (8), South Eastern Area
Ryan* is six years old with brown hair and bright blue eyes. He has a great sense of humour and is a sociable little boy who is effortlessly stylish!
Ryan enjoys the outdoors, riding his bike and scooter, as well as activities such as swimming and gymnastics and definitely has a natural ability for sports. He also loves music and has expressed an interest in playing an instrument. Ryan loves animals too and is learning to horse-ride.
Everyone that knows Ryan, whether involved in his care or his teachers, are all very fond of him and want him to have a long-term foster home where he can feel happy, safe and cared for.
Ryan’s early life experiences have been difficult for him and he is still learning to understand his emotions and form trusting adult relationships. He needs to live with two foster carers, ideally within the South Eastern area, who can confidently support him with his emotions and take a therapeutic approach to his care. Training and support will be provided to help Ryan’s foster carers meet all of his needs. Ryan would be best placed in a home where he is the only young child.
The stability of a long-term foster home would benefit Ryan in all areas of his life by offering him a safe and loving home without worrying about any more moves. Ryan has built positive relationships with his current carers, however his living arrangements are only temporary so a more permanent plan for his care is needed.
Ryan has four siblings whom he sees regularly and they are important to him. Ryan will continue to have family time, supported by social services.
Financial remuneration available in addition to fostering allowances.
