For every £1 we spend, 84p goes towards helping vulnerable children and families

The children we support are surviving on the bare minimum of food, clothing, and warmth - all the things so many of us take for granted. They are literally starving... you never get used to it.

You can make a difference

Right now, 4 million children in the UK are growing up in families without enough money to make ends meet.

Your donation could help put food in the fridge, pay for essential bills, and help to protect children's mental health from the devastating impact of poverty.

Why regular donations are so important

By setting up a direct debit and giving a monthly donation, you could make a difference to the lives of vulnerable children.

Donating a small amount each month means that together, we can provide support whenever a child needs our vital services.

Action for Children have blown me away. They were there for emotional support and also making sure that we could pay our bills and eat.
