About Barnardo's

When life gets tough or it feels like there’s nowhere to turn, Barnardo’s is here.

We’re here to make children and young people:

-Safer, so children at risk of harm are better protected.
-Happier, so children struggling with their wellbeing can access support and feel they belong.
-Healthier, so children growing up with disadvantage can experience good physical and mental health.
-More hopeful, so children experiencing challenges can move into adulthood with hope and confidence.

We try and do this by:

-Running excellent, inclusive services that improve the lives of children and young people.
-Improving practice, policy–making and systems so that they really work for all children and young people.
-Driving change in attitudes towards childhood, working closely with partners and supporters.

In 2023-24 we:

-Reached 356,200 children, young people, parents and carers through our services and partnerships.
-Ran 760 services across the UK.
-Were supported by 17,300 volunteers who gave an amazing 1.8m hours of their time to help us support even more children, young people and their families.
