Every child should have a safe and happy childhood.
At Action for Children, we protect and support vulnerable children and young people across the UK. We work in 476 local community services, as well as in schools and online, and campaign for lasting change. Last year, we helped more than 387,000 children, young people and families.
In our nurseries and children’s centres, staff make sure children get the best start in life. Our foster, adoption and modern residential services find children safe and loving homes.
We protect those who have been abused or neglected, and help children who care for others or find themselves homeless. And innovative new projects like the Blues Programme give young people the help they need to look after their mental and emotional wellbeing.
We’ve been helping children and young people for 150 years. But we can only continue our work with your support.
Make-A-Wish UK grants magical wishes to children and young people who have been diagnosed with a critical illness. Since being established in the UK in 1986, we have granted over nearly 15,000 amazing wishes Your donation doesn't just help provide a wish to a seriously ill child, it will give the whole family precious time together, creating memories to cherish for years to come. By making a donation today you will help grant a wish to one of the children who are currently waiting for their wish to come true. A regular donation of £5 a month will ensure that we can continue to grant the wishes of the hundreds of children who turn to us every year.
