In communities

With the right support, every child should flourish

We want to make a big difference

To children who are growing up in poverty, across all areas of their lives.

Our Children’s Communities programme gets organisations and agencies working together to make sure there are no gaps for children to fall through.

We empower local agencies to create a support chain that makes sure help is at hand for our poorest children - whatever stage of their development they need it.

Right now, we're focused on two communities in England, and we're working to take the approach to more areas across the UK.

Empowering local people

In Scotland we’re bringing people together through our Stronger Communities programme to solve problems at a local level.

Led by us, in partnership with five other children’s charities, we’re helping local people identify the issues affecting their community and generate their own solutions to create lasting change.
