“Without Action for Children, I don’t know where I’d be. Me and my children would have been homeless. But my support worker, she helped us in so many ways. I am so grateful.” Our vision is that every child and young person in the UK has a safe and happy childhood, and the foundations they need to thrive. We do this by working closely with children and their families, from before they’re born until their twenties.
