When you change a childhood, you change a life. Here's how you can help children, young people and families across the UK feel safer, happier, healthier and more hopeful.
Donate
When life gets tough or it feels like there’s nowhere to turn, Barnardo’s is here. We make sure children and young people feel safer, happier, healthier and more hopeful, by directly supporting them and their families with specialist services across the UK, raising awareness and campaigning to change the way the system works for the better. By donating you make that possible.
Fundraise
Be a force for good while having fun and raising money. Run, bake, skydive, leap-frog - do something you love to help support children and young people.
Volunteer
Whether you’re helping to run our shops, mucking in at one of our sorting offices, or working with young people through one of our services, you can help change a young person’s life, for the better.
Campaign with us
We need your support taking a stand for the rights of children and young people.
We call for changes to the law, policy, or practice that will improve children’s lives and the systems around them.
We listen to the views of the children and young people we support, information we get from the services we deliver. We then make recommendations to the Government and other policymakers about how they can change children’s lives for the better. But we can't achieve change alone.
Visit one of our shops
When you shop unique finds or donate your preloved items to us, you can feel good knowing you’re supporting children, young people and families around the UK. Find your local Barnardo’s store or shop with us online.
