Nexus Fostering teams up with Doughnotts for a sweet Foster Care Fortnight giveaway

Supporting Foster Care Fortnight – With Doughnuts and a Giveaway!

We’ve got something sweet to share this Foster Care Fortnight…

To help raise awareness of fostering and support children and young people going into care, we’ve teamed up with the brilliant team at Doughnotts for a special collaboration.

Doughnuts for a cause

From 12th to 25th May, 10% of all sales of Doughnotts' popular Cookie Monster doughnut will be donated to charities that support children entering the care system. Whether you’re buying a treat for yourself, your team at work, or your family, you’ll be helping to raise funds and awareness for a very important cause.

This collaboration is part of Foster Care Fortnight, the UK’s biggest campaign to celebrate the incredible work of foster carers and highlight the urgent need for more people to consider fostering.

“This is a fun, meaningful way to get people talking about fostering,” says Megan from Nexus Fostering. “We’re proud to partner with a local and community-focused brand like Doughnotts to spread the word and give people an easy way to support fostering.”

And yes – there’s a giveaway!

To celebrate the campaign, we’re running a giveaway with a fantastic prize bundle that includes:

  • A box of 6 Doughnotts
  • A £200 voucher to a retailer of your choice
  • Some exclusive Nexus Fostering merch

Head to our Instagram page to enter- The winner will be announced on 27th May – just after Foster Care Fortnight comes to a close.

Why this matters

At Nexus Fostering, we’ve seen first-hand the life-changing impact of fostering. Every child deserves a safe, loving home and every foster carer deserves the support they need to offer one. That’s what we’re here to do.

Foster Care Fortnight is a chance to shout about that mission. Whether it’s sharing a doughnut, spreading the word, or stepping forward to learn more about becoming a carer, every action helps.

So if you’re near a Doughnotts store this May, pop in for a Cookie Monster doughnut and think about the young people you’ll be supporting.
