Barnardos is Ireland’s largest children’s charity which supports the most vulnerable children in society. We provide a range of targeted, practical, and emotional support services in communities, schools, family homes; and 56 Barnardos centres nationwide. Every year Barnardos supports thousands of children and families nationwide. But we cannot do it alone.

Our work supports children and families affected by childhood trauma such as poverty; domestic violence or abuse; children whose parents suffer from mental health issues or addiction; separation and bereavement. We see first-hand how families are struggling to cope with the cost-of-living crisis, with many cutting back or going without heat, electricity and food. Demand for our services has never been greater.

These families need our help. We need yours.
