A FOSTERING scheme in Portsmouth is hoping for a boost in support and participation as its foster families take part in the returning Great South Run.

A total of nine foster carers and one fostered young person will take part in the adults’ 10-mile course around the city on Sunday, October 17.

Foster Portsmouth is on a drive for a more diverse range of foster carers, with the council-run organisation hoping to raise awareness through the Great South Run.
