Fostering: share your love

Every 20 minutes, a child comes into care needing a foster family in the UK. The rapid increase in demand for foster care has especially become a rising concern in Wales, where 13% foster carers leave the service every year.

Join us as we discuss the importance of fostering and the taking care of children to protect them from neglect and abuse. Learn more about how you can become a foster parent to change the future of a child.

Tokyo 2020- Rising sun flag

South Korea, which was under Japanese rule from 1910 until 1945, has asked Japan to ban the rising sun flag from Olympic stands this year. Tokyo has so far refused, explaining that the flag is “widely used in Japan” and is “not considered a political statement”.

Join us as we discuss the flag’s history, and whether it is, in fact, used to make a particular political statement in Japan today.

Guests include:
