Aunties and Uncles

"As patron of Aunties & Uncles and an aunt myself to a number of children through the service, I can personally endorse the great value of this much needed charitable organisation. Funds and volunteers are desperately needed, not only to continue running existing networks, but to establish Aunties & Uncles services in increasingly depressed and needy areas. Please help us to help each other."

"There can be nothing more confusing or devastating for a child than to be removed from their family, even for a short period of time. Do we have an alternative? Yes ­ Aunties & Uncles. My many years on the Children´s Court Bench has convinced me we must do more to keep the family unit intact wherever possible. Please help us do just that."
