What we do

Barnardo's 4U- Miss-U service offers young people who have been reported missing, by their family or guardians, to the police or the local authority the opportunity to have an independent return home interview.

We are able to support children and young people aged 5-25yrs who are the responsibility of the Isle of Wight Local Authority or resident on the Isle of Wight.
