What is Action for Children?
Action for Children is one of the UK's leading
children's charities.
What does Action for Children believe?
That all vulnerable children and young people should
have the opportunity to reach their full potential.
What makes Action for Children special to us?
It has been the children's charity of the Methodist
Church for 140 years, sharing the same values in terms of our
commitment to social justice for children and families and the building
of partnerships within the wider community. John Wesley said, "Go not
only to those who need you but to those who need you most". Sadly the
need now is as great as it ever was. Social Workers who have come to
Action for Children after working eg for a Local Authority, have told
us how the
Christian ethic makes a positive difference.
What does the Support Group do?
We raise the profile of the charity and raise funds. Our
events include concerts, coffee mornings, demonstrations, barn dances,
suppers, sponsored walks, market charity stalls, street and racecourse
collections.
What does Action for Children do?
Action for Children supports and speaks
out for the most vulnerable and neglected children and young people in
the UK. See http://www.actionforchildren.org.uk
for further details.
Why should people give to Action for Children?
90p in every £1 spent, goes towards the work with
children and their families, which is more than any other childcare
charity.
