Youth support services

Barnardos gives young people hope and enthusiasm for the future by empowering them to achieve their goals.

Building resilience

We offer young people a chance for their voices to be heard while understanding the enormous pressure and expectations placed on them.

We prevent youth homelessness by re-connecting young people with their families, community and education, giving them the tools and resilience to deal with life’s challenges.

WHAT WE SEE

We see beyond the sleepover in cars and understand the underlying issues.

After escaping family violence, a parent and their child have nowhere safe to stay and are
currently waiting for refuge accommodation.
