🌼 Spring Adventures with Fostering Together 🐣

Submitted by fosteringtogether on 16 April 2026

What a brilliant few weeks we’ve had celebrating the Spring and Easter holidays with our Fostering Together community across the UK! 🌱  From farms and wildlife parks to theme parks and picnics, we're very happy to be able to celebrate accessible days out across the community regions!

🐑 Baylham House Rare Breeds Farm

We kicked off our Spring events with a lovely visit to Baylham House Rare Breeds Farm, where foster carers and children spent time meeting newborn lambs and learning how the farm prepares for the busy spring season. 🐑✨

It was a warm and welcoming day, and a wonderful opportunity for families to come together and enjoy the countryside. A truly “ewe-nique” start to the holidays! 💛

🐾 Barleylands Farm, Billericay

We continued our Easter adventures with our Essex, Surrey, Sussex & London community at Barleylands Farm. 🐑💛

Families enjoyed time with the animals, fresh air and a bit of racing fun 🏎, as well as celebrating a young person’s birthday with cake and smiles all around 🎂.

Thank you to the Barleylands team for hosting us and helping create such a special day.

🎢 Drayton Manor Theme Park

Our Midlands community enjoyed an exciting day out at Drayton Manor Theme Park in Tamworth! 🎢💙

Families made the most of the rides, attractions and even pizza breaks 🍕. Some braved the bigger rides, while others enjoyed a more relaxed pace in Thomasland and the zoo 🚂🐾.

It was a fantastic day of fun, laughter and shared experiences.

🌿 Ferry Meadows Picnic – East Midlands & The Fens

Our East Midlands & Fens community enjoyed a relaxed outdoor day at Ferry Meadows ☀️💛

We brought along a picnic, toys, music and our rainbow tickle tunnel 🧺🎶, making the most of the beautiful weather while watching the miniature train pass by 🚂.

We also brought Lulu to support accessibility needs, ensuring families with personal care requirements had access to appropriate facilities ♿️.

Thank you to Nene Park Trust for their support on the day.

🦉 Wildwood Kent Wildlife Park

We rounded off our Spring events with our South East community at Wildwood Kent Wildlife Park 🐾💛

It was a fantastic day exploring native British wildlife, from bears and bison to lynx, wild boar and owls 🐻🦉.

Families also enjoyed the park’s accessible changing facilities, helping ensure everyone could take part comfortably and confidently ♿️.
