Barnardo's
Mission Statement
As one of the UK’s leading children’s charities, Barnardo’s believes in children regardless of their circumstances, gender, race, disability or behaviour. We believe in the abused, the vulnerable, the forgotten and the neglected. We will support them, stand up for them and bring out the best in each and every child. We do this because we believe in children.
Barnardo’s works directly with over 100,000 children, young people and their families every year. We run 400 vital projects across the UK, including counselling for children who have been abused, fostering and adoption services, vocational training and disability inclusion groups.
Every Barnardo’s project is different but each believes that every child and young person deserves the best start in life, no matter who they are, what they have done or what they have been through. We believe that the lives of all children should be free from poverty, abuse and discrimination. We do this because we believe that every child deserves the chance to transform their lives and fulfil their potential.
We use the knowledge gained from our direct work with children to campaign for better childcare policy and to champion the rights of every child. With the right help, committed support and a little belief, even the most vulnerable children can turn their lives around.
Barnardo’s is regulated by the Charity Commission (Registered charity nos. 216250 and SC037605). Being a registered charity means that we must always be accountable and transparent. Our annual report and accounts are available on our website at: wwww.barnardos.org.uk.
Give with confidence. Barnardo’s adheres to the Donor’s Charter and Fundraising Standards Board guidelines.
