Hi. Try to follow the instructions on this page in order to maximize your battery life: https://www.apple.com/batteries/maximizing-performance/
Try to reset your device. This won't delete your data stored on the phone.
You may also try to reset all settings: go to Settings - General - Reset - Reset All Settings
You may also try to follow these steps:
1. Navigate to settings/general/ battery usage. Check the applications. This will show you which app eats up your battery.
2. Turn off iCloud keychain: Navigate to Settings/ iCloud/Keychain / turn it off.
3. Limit apps activity on the background: Navigate to Settings/ general/ Background App refresh/ turn it off for each application which uses to much power.
4. Disable auto brightness: Navigate to settings/ display and brightness/ auto-brightness. Turn this option off.
If nothing above helps take your device to the Apple Store. Battery may need to need replaced.
It's also very possible that your battery is just wearing out. If you have an iPad 2 then it's a few years old (mine is 4) and those batteries have a finite life span and number of charges/discharges.
The battery replacement costs around 100 dollars.
