Action for Children is here to make sure any child who needs our help gets our help - whatever their background and wherever they are in the UK. Our team of 5,000 staff and 2,000 volunteers provides practical services that are proven to work.

Since 1869 (initially as the National Children's Home), we've been working on ever more effective ways to change children's lives for the better.

By doing what's right, By doing what's needed. By doing what works.
