Description: Our frontline services: We run quality services that draw on clear evidence and good practice that are being replicated across the country. We work locally where we can make the greatest possible change for disadvantaged children.
Campaigning for change: We are growing our ambitious programme of campaigning to champion change at a national and local level. We have a strong track record of challenging misconceptions, and changing attitudes and practice. We do this by uncovering desperate situations, exposing injustice and addressing hard truths.
Fundraising and our supporters: We are growing our income to generate crucial funds to change the lives of more disadvantaged children. We are strengthening and growing our crucial supporter base and strategic alliances, including new church and community partnerships. We are growing our army of volunteers and staff dedicated to improving the lives of disadvantaged children.
