Sarah Anderson, founder of FosterWiki. The Allegations Impact Report and its effects on foster carers. This is such an important and thought provoking discussion
Episode 201 - Sarah Anderson from Foster Wiki talks allegations.

Allegations are a massive issue for foster carers and in this episode we unpick the impact and consider what can be done.
