Inside Lives: everyone has a story inside them
Kids just want to have fun - by Alix (9)Our Family

Author: Kevin Murphy

Kevin remembers some of the trials and joys of over 12 years being a foster carer for the Taking Care season.

"How many kids do you want? Two or three. Is that all? Nine or ten then! Let's foster..."

Kevin is a 38 years old full-time foster carer and parent from Crewe in Cheshire. He lives with his wife Ruth and their three children Kerri; Alix and Connor, plus an ever-changing extended family of youngsters placed in their family's care. He enjoys mountain biking, but hates DIY!

This is quite simply a story about our way of life and, hopefully, an insight into why we do it. Inside Lives has been brilliant - it's given me a chance to relive loads of past experiences.
