TOWIE's Debbie Douglas and Lydia Rose Bright have lent their support to The Fostering Network's Foster Care Fortnight, running until May 29.

The pair were appointed as fostering ambassadors for the Department for Education (DfE) last year, and have taken part in a 20 minute bake off to highlight the fact that a child comes into care needing a foster family every 20 minutes in the UK. Douglas, who has been a foster carer for over 20 years, said of fostering 'You don't have to be superhuman, you just need to be loving, understanding and resilient... I urge anyone who thinks they have the skills and personality to make a positive impact on these children's lives to talk to their fostering service about becoming a foster carer'.
