Judy 34 - Mother of 2 pre-school children
"Home-Start came along when I needed it most. Having two babies eleven months apart and suffering mental health issue, everyday was a struggle. Sometimes just having five minutes to clear your head can make such a difference.
I met my volunteer and the kids loved her from day one! She showed me that sometimes things don't always do to plan but it is ok - 'its a bad day, not a bad life'.
I honestly can't imagine where I would have been without Home-Start, from napping for 20 minutes and being able to shower without little people at my feet, to the days out and all the information I didn't know was out there!
I truly feel stronger as a person and as a Mother thanks to Home-Start and for that I am forever grateful."
