What we do

We are Kinship. The leading kinship care charity in England and Wales. We’re here for kinship carers – friends or family who step up to raise a child when their parents aren’t able to. We are made by, and for, our community of kinship carers.

Our impact

Each year, we support more than 15,000 kinship carers at every stage of their kinship journey providing advice, information and support.
