Barnardo's 

At Barnardo's, we believe in children. Our purpose is to transform the lives of the UK's most vulnerable children.  

We've come a long way since our founder, Thomas Barnardo set up a ‘ragged school' to help disadvantaged children in 1867. Now we're helping hundreds of thousands of children, young people, parents and carers across the UK each year.  

We believe in children regardless of their circumstances, gender, sexual orientation, race, religion and beliefs, disability, age and behaviour. We listen to them, fight for their rights and do whatever it takes to protect and support them – because we believe that all children have the right to a happy and healthy life.  

At a time when more young people need specialist help with complex issues like sexual abuse, mental health problems and serious violence, our work is more vital than ever. Times have changed and we've changed with them, but our belief in the potential of every child remains.
