Sparks Fostering Team

Sheetal Afonso
Care-experienced

I was a young carer up until I went into foster care at the age of 11, it was within the wider family so had its own challenges as well as positives. I have a diverse outlook and am passionate about children belonging in their environment, feeling safe and achieving their best.

I have worked as a Police Staff member with the Metropolitan Police Service for 18 years before moving to the financial industry in 2023. This move has highlighted that I want to pursue a more supporting, helping role so am re-training to change career and am a volunteer mentor for an at-risk young person with a local charity.

Outside of studying, volunteering and working, I do enjoy a bit of poetry writing, reading and hiking.
