Children on the Edge

Children on the Edge is a UK-based charity that "returns childhood to forgotten children," through education programs, community strengthening, and support for displaced children. Children on the Edge makes a difference for thousands of marginalised children, who are living on the edge of their societies across the world. Many are without parental care, neglected or persecuted by their own governments, ignored by the international media and missed by large overseas agencies.

​Children on the Edge exists to support the world’s most marginalised children. Working hand-in-hand with communities in some of the toughest situations, we transform the lives of these children by creating safe spaces in which they can live, play, learn, and grow.

We are proud of our child rights approach and our ability to tailor solutions based on the specific needs of each community we work with, using over 30 years of experience. This includes nurturing positive parenting and early childhood development, creating play and educational opportunities, and presenting an array of community transformation initiatives.
