Advent Challenge
Join Barnardos’ Advent Challenge and help change the story for vulnerable children this Christmas!
Children and adults alike love an Advent Calendar, a treat-filled way of marking off the days leading up to Christmas and Santa’s arrival. This year we are asking you to help change the story for vulnerable children in Ireland by creating your own magical new family tradition.
We are calling on families, young and old, to unlock the joy of giving while taking on an uplifting personal challenge by signing up to take part in Barnardos’ Advent Challenge.
