Sheffield Council is encouraging more families to help change young people’s lives as part of Foster Care Fortnight. Foster carers in Sheffield look after more than 265 children but fostering homes are still needed in the city. Sheffield Live reporter Azz Mohammed spoke to Diane Hamid who has fostered thirteen children over the past five years.
