Is there a word limit on children’s profiles on the website?
The advantage of web profiles is that there is no space limitation, which gives you the opportunity to say a lot more about a child. However, quality is usually better than quantity! Providing information in all the above categories should give a fairly complete picture of the child. Remember that you have the opportunity to provide quotes from the child, their foster carers, teachers or social worker, which will make the profile lively and stand out. We would recommend a maximum word count of 500 words for an individual child, and 900 words for a sibling group. Don’t forget that if you are opting to feature children in the open area of the website, you will need to provide us with a short profile which will appear with the child’s photograph in that area. This should be no longer than 50 words.
