Toddle Waddle

We would like to say a huge thank you to all our parents and family members who joined us on our Toddle Waddle on Thursday. We got a little wet in the morning but that didn't stop us and we moved our picnic to indoors tucking into lots of lovely treats. Thank you to everyone who has been collecting sponsors for our Banardos charity.

What Banardos believe

At Barnardo’s we believe in children – no matter who they are, what they have done or what they have been through. We will ensure their needs are met and their voices are heard.
This belief started with our pioneering founder, Thomas Barnardo, who stood up for the most vulnerable children in society. We continue to fight for the UK’s most vulnerable children to realise his dream of a world where no child is turned away.
Our vision is his vision – a world where no child is turned away.
Our purpose is to transform the lives of the UK’s most vulnerable children.
Our mission

• Reach and help those children whose voices are unheard and whose needs are unmet.
• Defend, safeguard and support them at key moments to change their lives for the better.
• Fight to change policy, practice and public opinion.
• Inspire our people and partners to unite behind our purpose.
• We value and embrace diversity, and are committed to creating a society for our staff, our volunteers and the children we work with that is free from discrimination, victimisation and harassment.

Give with confidence

Barnardo’s is regulated by the Charity Commission. Being a registered charity means that we must always be accountable and transparent.


We will be collecting the rest of the sponsor money and counting it over this next week. Please ensure all your sponsor money is handed in and we will let you know how much money we have raised. Thank you so much again.
