Our 2020/21 annual report Despite the disruption caused by the coronavirus pandemic in 2020/21, we helped 604,885 children, young people and their families. This is a 64% increase year-on-year, achieved through the expansion of digital services. Action for Children delivered 512 services all across the UK. We kept 99% of services open, thanks to the tireless efforts of staff and volunteers. Together with our supporters we raised £20 million, including our first emergency appeal. We helped change the law on domestic abuse, helping the 800,000 children gain recognition as victims in their own right. Our digital service Parent Talk supported three times as many parents and carers. 90% rated the service 'good' or 'amazing'.
