Coronavirus advice
Now more than ever we want to offer support to children, young people and families in need. There is an exhaustive amount of information available about Coronavirus, and it can be hard to know where to start or how much to worry. We've built advice hubs for both parents and children, covering anxiety support resources, physical and emotional wellbeing, activity inspiration, food ideas and more.

A message for stakeholders from Javed Khan
Barnardo's CEO Javed Khan appeals to stakeholders on behalf of the vulnerable children and young people in our society.
Donate your Zakat this Ramadan
We have supported over 1,600 Syrian refugees in the UK since 2015. Help us rebuild their lives further by launching a brand new Employment Programme.
We protect, support and nurture the UK's most vulnerable children
Barnardo's helps bring out the best in children – no matter who they are or what they have been through.
For every £1 you donate, we spend 91p on working with the children and young people who most need our help.
What we do
-
Fostering and adoption
We have more than 100 years' experience of placing children with foster carers and adoptive families. Could you provide a safe and loving home to a child who needs it?
-
Protecting children
We support children who have been abused and help them feel safe again. We provide the long-term support they need and help prevent further cases of abuse.
-
Supporting young people
We offer practical and emotional support to young people so they can enter adulthood with the confidence they need to achieve their full potential.
Important notice: Barnardo's shops are closed
