We support children and young people from birth to independence, creating a change that lasts a lifetime.
Coram is the UK’s oldest children’s charity founded by Thomas Coram in London helping vulnerable children and young people since 1739. Today, the Coram group helps more than one million children, young people, families and professionals every year by providing access to the skills and opportunities they need to thrive.
About Coram Family and Childcare
Coram Family and Childcare works to make the UK a better place for families, focusing on childcare and early years to make a difference to families’ lives now and in the long term.

Every year, we publish our annual Childcare Survey and our Holiday Childcare Survey – the definitive reports on childcare costs and availability across Great Britain.
Our network of local Parent Champions schemes reaches thousands of parents each year, with dedicated local volunteers ensuring parents are aware of their rights and entitlements, improving children’s outcomes.
We deliver responsive, family-focussed projects, often in partnership with other expert organisations, reaching some of the most disadvantaged families and levelling the playing field for disadvantaged children. This includes Books Together, a programme working in local communities in London to support parents of young children to read together, through a series of informative and interactive sessions.
We deliver the National Association of Family Information Services (NAFIS) – the only national membership organisation supporting essential Family Information Service staff in local authorities to deliver high-quality information and advice to families.
We are the Learning Partner for Childcare Works, supporting the rollout of the expansion of funded childcare, on behalf of the Department for Education.
