In this episode, Martin is joined by Gareth Webb, Managing Director from Fair Ways, a charity that provides a range of services for children, including fostering and education.

The conversation is centred around Leadership within the charity sector, fostering and the development of children, and people in general, flourish in environments that provide a crucial balance.

Martin and Gareth emphasises that while children need unconditional love and care to feel safe and secure, this must be paired with discipline, boundaries, and clear expectations.

A key highlight of the episode is Fairways' "Fostering Initiative", which aims to bridge the gap between businesses and the fostering community. The goal is to encourage companies to adopt "Fostering Friendly Employer" policies. This initiative is designed to support employees who are also foster carers by providing them with practical benefits.

These include flexible working arrangements and paid time off for things like training and helping a new child settle into their home.

Gareth presents this initiative not only as a socially responsible act for businesses but also as a way to significantly improve the lives of vulnerable children.
