A FOSTER care agency is urging more people in the borough to look after a child without a home.

Apple Fostering, which provides services for young people across North London, has claimed there has been a “30 year high” of children in care.

Anyone over the age of 21 can apply to be a foster carer, regardless of marital status and families could be paid up to £412 a week for looking after a child over 13-years-old.
