About Us

SOS Children’s Villages UK is part of a global federation, founded in 1949. Working in over 130 countries, SOS Children’s Villages is the world’s largest non-governmental organisation focused on supporting children and young people who don’t have, or are at risk of losing, parental care. Today, 1 in 10 children and young people around the world are separated from their families, neglected or forced to live in an abusive environment.

We go beyond meeting the physical needs of each child, focusing on providing love and support. Because when a child or young person is safe, loved and respected, they can thrive, not just survive.
