Dr Barnardo's Memorial, Grade II* listed memorial sculpture in London Borough of Redbridge, England.

The memorial features a central bronze figure representing Charity embracing two children, with granite quadrant walls and benches on a stepped base.

Created by sculptor George Frampton in 1908, the memorial honors Dr Thomas Barnardo, who established numerous orphanages across London during the Victorian era.

The sculpture includes inscriptions from Dr Barnardo's will and biblical quotations, reflecting the connection between Victorian philanthropy and religious values.

Located at The Village Green in Redbridge IG6 1FY, the memorial stands within a modern housing development built on former Barnardo's headquarters grounds.

The bronze figures were modeled after actual residents of Village Homes, while the crown and lion details reference a ring worn by Barnardo.
