Vivienne and David Baker have been approved foster carers since 1992, first in Cornwall before moving to Plymouth, which means they have given more than 30 years of service.
Mr and Mrs Baker have cared for more than 70 children and young people from Plymouth over the years, offering a permanent home to two children who are now adults with children of their own and who are considered part of their family, taking an active role in their grandchildren's lives.
They have also worked with children with additional needs and disabilities, including attachment disorders, foetal alcohol syndrome and mutism, helping them to feel safe and rebuild their trust in adults.
