Reality television stars Judy and Roxy Wilson, known for their recent appearance on the BBC series The Traitors, have publicly endorsed proposed government changes aimed at reforming fostering regulations. The mother-daughter duo’s support comes as new plans seek to broaden the eligibility criteria for prospective foster parents across England.
The proposed reforms are designed to allow single or unmarried individuals, renters, and those in full-time employment to open their homes to children in need of care. This initiative aims to significantly increase the number of available foster care places, with a target of creating an additional 10,000 by 2029/30.
