We provide a home visiting support service to local vulnerable families and children who have multiple needs. We offer weekly visits through a team of parent volunteers. Over the last 3 years we have supported over 200 families with 70 volunteers who all have parenting experience themselves.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Home-Start is one of the leading family support charities in the UK.

Home-Start volunteers help families with young children deal with the challenges they face. We support parents as they learn to cope, improve their confidence and build better lives for their children.

Families struggling with post-natal depression, isolation, physical health problems, bereavement and many other issues receive the support of a volunteer who will spend around two hours a week in a family’s home supporting them in the ways they need.

Home-Starts across the UK also support families in groups, hold day trips and Christmas parties and help access local services, as well as lots of other support.

  • A donation of £10 could fund a Home-start volunteer's first to visit a fragile family
  • £50 could help to train a new volunteer

The service helps in so many ways, for more information have a look at their website https://www.home-start.org.uk/
