About NCH NCH is the UK's leading children's charity. Through our services we support some of the UK's most vulnerable and excluded children and young people.NCH was founded in 1869 and known for many years as the National Children's Home. We are now known simply as NCH. The children, young people and families we work with face difficulties such as poverty, disability and abuse. We work in partnership to develop services in response to local need, and we are the leading UK provider of services for disabled children and their families, children's services in rural areas, family and community centres, and services for young people leaving care. What we believeWe believe all children and young people have unique potential and that they should have the support and opportunities they need to reach it. We have been working to make this vision a reality for over 135 years. Our work NCH runs nearly 500 projects for some of the most vulnerable and excluded children, young people and their families throughout the UK. We work with more than 140,000 children, young people and families each year, more than any other UK charity. We also promote social justice by lobbying and campaigning for change.
