No child should face
life’s struggles alone.
At Spurgeons, we believe every child deserves the opportunity of living a happy and hope-filled life: that no child should face abuse, neglect or uncertainty.
Find out how we make a difference to the lives of vulnerable and disadvantaged children and families every year and how you can get involved.
Spurgeons Children's Charity
With over 3.9 million children living in poverty in the UK today and around 400,000 classed by the child protection service as being in need, Spurgeons services are more needed than ever. In the last year, we have made a real difference to the lives of almost 3,000 children, young people and adults, and protected 1,200 from neglect harm and abuse. But we can’t do it on our own; we need your help to give young people and their families the opportunity for a hope-filled life.
Spurgeons is a Christian children’s charity. This means our values are core to who we are and in all that we do:
Hopeful
We believe in the value and potential of every child.
Inclusive
We recognise every person as a unique individual, deserving of respect.
Compassionate
We won’t walk away, even when that means making tough choices.
Help to give hope for every child
