We will never give up on children living through conflict. 🖤
Child recruitment by armed forces and groups has almost doubled in four years.

Right now, children are being taken from their homes and classrooms. Coerced, forced, manipulated.

But recruitment is not inevitable. It's preventable.

Each year, Oxford University Press names a Children’s Word of the Year. For 2025, children across the UK chose peace.

With 1 in 5 children worldwide now living through or affected by conflict, it’s no surprise.

They’re paying attention. They’re asking for change. It’s time the world listened.

For 1,000 days children in Sudan have been running from gunfire, abduction, rape and forced recruitment. Many are alone, separated from their families or orphaned, walking hundreds of kilometres trying to find safety.

As we enter 2026, our cause remains clear: no child should be part of war. Ever. More children are at risk from conflict than at any time since WWII. With your support, we will protect children, keep them learning, support recovery, and defend their rights—into 2026 and beyond.

For children around the world, this time of year should mean family, warmth, and safety. For thousands of Ukrainian children forcibly transferred into Russia, it means something very different.

Children in Sudan are being left to starve.

Right now, only 35% of the humanitarian aid needed in 2025 has been pledged, according to Care International. Governments are cutting aid even as need grows more extreme every day.
