About us
Children’s services are responsible for the delivery of high quality services to children and young people, funded through income from local authorities, government agencies, etc., as well as Barnardo’s voluntary funds.

Localities are grouped into three nations and five English regions, each headed by a Nation or Region Director and supported by an Assistant Director of Finance (ADF). The ADF is responsible for overseeing the financial management of the region / nation and all of its localities.
