With less than four weeks until Foster Fest 2025, Hull Fostering is pulling out all the stops to create the most joyful, welcoming, and memorable day for our fostering community, and we need your help
Foster Fest isn’t just a party. It’s a celebration of everything Hull Fostering stands for:
- Recognising our incredible carers and their families
- Building connections across the whole fostering community
- Making Hull Fostering the most welcoming, family-friendly fostering service around
By putting on brilliant, free events like this, we show why carers and families should choose Hull Fostering — not just because of what we offer day-to-day, but because of the vibrant, supportive community we create together.
Thanks to a huge community effort — calling in favours, pulling resources together — we already have some brilliant entertainment lined up:
Foam party fun, performers, activities for all ages.
But to truly make this a day to remember, we’re still hoping for more help.
This is where you can make a real difference! We’re cheekily asking for donations or contributions “in kind” — meaning your time, skills or services — all to support a day that will give back so much joy and gratitude to our fostering families.
Here’s what we’d love to add to the day:
Activities & Attractions
- Wellness & Entertainment
- Inflatables
- Indian head massage for carers
- Bouncy castles
- Zumba session
- Climbing walls
- Line dancing session
- Rodeo bull
- Face painters
- Children’s rides
- Stilt walkers
- Superhero appearances
- Holistic therapies
Even offering an hour or two of your time or lending a piece of equipment can make a big impact.
Foster Fest is completely free to open to our fostering and children with care experience community. It’s a heartfelt way of thanking our foster carers.
Every ride, every performer, every extra bit of entertainment sends a powerful message: this is a community that looks after each other and knows how to celebrate together.
If you can offer any of the activities above, or something else creative, we’d love to hear from you.
If you know anyone who can help (local businesses, friends, family), please spread the word!

Together, We Can Make Foster Fest Unforgettable
Hull Fostering is proud of the community spirit that makes events like Foster Fest possible — but this year, we want to go bigger and better than ever before.
With your help, we can turn this day into a joyful, welcoming festival that highlights everything wonderful about Hull’s fostering community.
We can’t wait to see you there, and thank you in advance for helping us create something magical!
