Barnardos work with, and for, vulnerable children and their families all over Ireland. Their services are particularly necessary over the holidays, more so in a year when food poverty, heat poverty, electricity bills and homelessness are all on the rise.
We wanted to simultaneously show magical Christmas scenes that all children would experience in an ideal world, and the stark reality actually being faced by many families in Ireland this year.
