Hi, we're Barnardo's👋 We're here to help children, young people and families feel safer, happier, healthier and more hopeful. When you change a childhood, you change a life.
Our mission is to create and support one-to-one mentoring relationships that ignite the power and promise of youth.
Follow our page to stay up to date on the latest Big Brothers Big Sisters news. We'll also include regular updates and links that will help to demonstrate the true value of mentoring and the positive impact that it can have on the life of a child or young person.
We accomplish our mission by partnering with parents/guardians, volunteers and others in the community, and we hold ourselves accountable for each child in our program achieving:
- Higher aspirations, greater confidence, and better relationships;
- Avoidance of risky behaviors; and
- Educational success.
