- Learning from Vulnerable Children: How to Care Better
- Ich über mich
- Kids Company is a charity founded by Camila Batmanghelidjh in 1996 in order to provide practical, emotional and educational support to vulnerable inner-city children and young people.
The majority of the children who access our interventions present with severe emotional, behavioural and social difficulties, resulting from significant experiences of trauma and neglect. Many of them are ‘lone children’ living in chronic deprivation, with limited or no support from the adults in their family.
In 2007, Kids Company supported 12,000 children and young people through a range of services, based on therapeutic principles. We aim to provide an environment where relationships of empathy and attachment can be fostered between children and trusted adults. All children are welcome and we never turn a child away.
We are constantly inspired by the courage and dignity expressed by vulnerable children in the face of overwhelming challenges, and in everything that we do the child is put first.

Can you offer your services as a volunteer?
“Kids Company is an incredible organisation. The opportunities for volunteers to help them make a positive impact on the lives of extremely vulnerably young people are enormous. From helping them to lift kids out of living in sub-standard accommodation to acting as a mentor, volunteers who have worked with Kids Company always come away humbled and thrilled by the experience.”
Kate Walmsley
Your contribution will never be forgotten, whether it’s decorating a depleted house, taking a child on a day trip, or helping out in a school. If you or your company would like to volunteer in any way with Kids Company, we would love to hear from you.
