Support Vulnerable Children in Ireland During the Covid-19 Crisis

These last two weeks we have seen how lucky our children are to have a safe space to 'lockdown', food to eat, and art supplies and games to entertain them and enable them to continue learning while they are out of school. Unfortunately not every child is so lucky. We were looking for the best way to reach those families and help them to get the supplies they need to get through this crisis and one charity immediately came to mind.

Barnardos works to safeguard the welfare of economically and socially disadvantaged children in Ireland. Covid-19 has plunged these already vulnerable children deeper into crisis. The families they work with, who were already living in stressful situations, are now experiencing a pressure cooker effect – children are living with domestic abuse, parental mental health challenges, neglect, acrimonious separation and family breakdown and addiction – now with no escape.
