I’m running the Cardiff half marathon for Home Start Cymru.
Home-Start Cymru offers free, confidential support and practical help to parents of young children living across Wales who are going through a difficult time.
Being a parent, whatever your situation, can be very difficult, especially when children are young. Many parents feel exhausted and overwhelmed by the stresses of family life, particularly if they have little support from family and friends when they need it most.
For some parents it’s a struggle because they are also having to cope with issues such as peri-natal depression, their or their child’s illness or disability, isolation or multiple birth.
