Fostering & Blue Monday


17-Jan-12 16:03

Apparently, yesterday was Blue Monday - the most miserable day of the year!

 

It passed us in fostering by as its a good time to be involved in fostering - the team are looking forward & aiming to get enough foster carers to look after all the children in Rotherham that need to be looked after - this may seem a tall order as there is a local & national shortage of suitable foster carers but we are a determined bunch!

 

Look at the fostering section of the AMC site for details - you may think that you aren’t eligible to foster, when you can!

 

Give us a call - we currently have 136 carers but need & want many more - IT COULD BE YOU!

 

All the best

 

Andy Symcox

Fostering Recruitment Team Manager

How to create a Blog





Navigate to the blogs page, which can be located on the smaller navigation bar at the top of the page to the right of the main headers.

Once on the page at the top right will be a small stunt to ‘post a blog’, which will then take you to a small, short form to fill out your information.



The form has been made as user friendly as possible and requires only minimal information.

Start off by inputting your title. This can generally be a small or long as you want however, short titles are recommended and generally more eye catching.


Next you have the option to input a thumbnail image to give with your blog. These are not necessary, but again recommended in drawing attention.

Keyword tags – once you click on this box it will open up into a window were you can choose from a variety of different words or input your own in the top box. It is very important to fill this in with as many different words applicable to the content of your blog. This helps it appear in numerous places throughout the site and also ranks it higher up on a Google search. Separate each word with a comma and when you’re finished click the ‘Attach’ button which will return you back to the form with your keywords in place.

NOTE: If you wish to put a phrase or a string of words in together you will need to put them in speech marks as the function automatically breaks up words.
After this there is the option to add a main image, again this is not necessary but will appear at the top of your blog when people access it and can make it more engaging and interesting to view.

Next is the ‘ Blog Intro’ box where you can write an introduction to go with your blog that once listed, will display with your thumbnail (if you decide to add one) to entice readers to on the link to read your blog.



Following this is another box ‘Blog Entry’, where you can input your content. You can write directly into the box or copy and paste from a document into the box, just remember to space it out again afterwards.

After this your blog is complete and you can click the ‘Save’ button at the top of the page. After this your blog should appear in the listing on the Blogs page that you entered through and any other pages you tagged too.
