About The Barbara Ward Children's Foundation

The Barbara Ward Children's Foundation is a small UK-based grantmaker focused on severely disadvantaged children, with support extending both across the UK and internationally. It tends to back smaller, non-religious children's charities where relatively modest grants can have an outsized impact, especially for children facing disability, illness, poverty, or social exclusion. The foundation appears especially interested in practical, direct-service support such as respite, inclusion, family support, and specialist help for children with complex needs.
