Barnardo's stopped running homes for orphans over 30 years ago. Since then the services we provide have changed but our aim to help children and young people in the greatest need stays the same.

Promoting excellence
Barnardo’s research department works to promote excellence in childcare in the UK. Find out more about the work they do.

Work with children and young people
We run over 357 services across the UK helping children and young people in need. Why not find out more about our work with children and young people including our projects that work with a range of issues including sexual abuse and homelessness.

Work with families and the community
Barnardo’s works with families in a variety of ways including fostering and adoption, disability and domestic violence. We also work within communities through our work with child poverty and the Better Play scheme.
