Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Anna, Sarah and Louise are running the Guildford Inflatable 5k in May to raise money for Home Start Guildford and support our wonderful Mother and Mother-in-Law!

Our lovely mother works for Home Start Guildford so we see and hear first hand how much work and support they do for families in need.

Being a parent, whatever your situation, can be very difficult at times, 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, just when they need it most. Home-Start Guildford supports parents who have at least one child under 5 years and who are dealing with issues such as:

Isolation, Mental Health, Sickness, Disability, Domestic Abuse, Multiple Births and Difficult Relationships.

For some parents it’s a real struggle because they also have to cope with difficult situations like post-natal depression, illness, disability, relationship issues or multiple births.

A carefully selected volunteer who has parenting experience will regularly visit a family in their own home, offering emotional and practical support through difficult times. This parent to parent support is a simple yet effective way of giving hope and enabling families to get back on track.

Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to Home Start Guildford. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for them.

Thank you so much for your support and donations.
