Foster carers in online chat

FOSTER carers are to take part in a “Twinterview” with potential recruits.

West Lothian residents can ask questions of current carers and staff from the council’s family placement team on social networking site Twitter.

The live chat takes place next Monday between 7pm and 8pm using the Twitter handle @lovefostering.

The council’s Jennifer Scott said: “This is an excellent opportunity for people interested in fostering to speak directly to carers about their experience.”
