About Us
Partnership for Children is an independent charity which promotes the mental health and emotional wellbeing of children around the world.
Our principal activity is a programme called Zippy’s Friends, which is now running in primary schools and kindergartens in 28 countries and has already helped more than 700,000 children.
We also develop resources for parents and teachers to help young children cope with difficult situations, such as bereavement, bullying or divorce and separation. Many of these resources are available free of charge on this website.
The need to promote children’s mental health crosses national and cultural boundaries, and we work with an international network of partner agencies, from Iceland to India, São Paulo to Shanghai. Our aim is to help as many children as possible - see how we do it.
