Special Barnardo's local events

Barnardo’s run special local events around the UK. Each event enables visitors to learn about the history of Barnardo’s and to hear from a children’s services manager who can bring alive our work with children today.

A speaker will also explain the vital role that gifts in Wills play in providing the income we need to help children in desperate need.

If you would like to attend an event or put your name down for future events, please call us on 020 8498 7880 or email Barnardo's gifts in wills.
