Our most committed and passionate supporters are welcomed to become members of one of our Barnardo’s Philanthropy Networks or Childhood Champions programmes; a growing group of like-minded philanthropists who enable us to create tangible, lasting change for children.

The Barnardo's Philanthropy Network recognises this support at one of six levels: Ally, Friend, Benefactor, Pioneer, Patron and Platinum Patron – all of which represent a truly incredible commitment to changing children’s lives. Dependent on the value of your donation or similar, your membership of the Philanthropy Network can begin  at Ally and progress to Platinum Patron.

As someone who was raised in care, I know the difference it makes having someone who believes in you when you are starting out in the world. Barnardo’s provides that belief for thousands of young people each year. I have been consistently impressed by the passion, professionalism and dedication of this organisation.
