Ormiston is the biggest children's charity in the East of England. We work to improve the wellbeing of children, young people and their families, whatever their circumstances.

Last year we helped over 16,000 children and their families. We currently have 35 community and prison-based projects across seven counties, and we work in schools, children's centres and with families in their homes to give them the support they need.

Our vision is of a society where all children and young people have choices to realise their full potential and to achieve happiness and fulfillment, free from prejudice, isolation and stigma.

Our mision is to identify the most challenged children and young people and to enable them to have choices to realise a happy and fulfilling future.
