Jan 16, 2017, 01:32 PM

MFR News has been given exclusive access to the North's care system for kids, and we're hearing about the highs and lows of being taken into care. More than 500-children across the Highlands and Moray are being looked after by the local authorities, and today we're hearing Jemma's story. The 20-year-old from Inverness was taken into foster care with her younger brother after a breakdown in the family. But the devastation didn't end there for Jemma...not only was her mum taken away from her, she lost her brother too. And 17-year-old Rebecca - also who's in foster care in the Highland capital - tells us how losing her mum to cancer changed her life forever.
