Every local authority has a legal obligation to make sure all children in their area have a safe and nurturing environment to live when they can’t live with their families. The common reasons for the establishment of children’s homes are:

Barnardo’s has been changing childhoods and changing lives for over 150 years.
In 1867, Thomas John Barnardo opened his first home for boys where the boys were able to live and learn carpentry, metalwork, and shoemaking, and get help getting into apprenticeships. Barnardo believed that every child deserved the best possible start in life, whatever their background.
This philosophy still guides our work with children, young people, and families today.
We believe that our homes offer children and young people a safe and nurturing environment, where they are accepted as individuals, can be supported to start to recover from their trauma, and develop their opportunities for success in later life.

Skyline is a collaborative arrangement across the 10 Greater Manchester local authorities for the provision of specialist children's homes.
