As the UK's biggest children's charity, Barnardo's runs more than 400 projects across the UK and has been changing lives for nearly 150 years. We run schools, vocational training courses and restaurants staffed by our young people. We provide support for families and children leaving care, adoption and fostering services, and much more. Barnardo's also campaigns on behalf of children, bringing vital issues to the attention of both the public and the Government. We do this because we believe in children. Barnardo's vision is that the lives of all children and young people should be free from poverty, abuse and discrimation.
