Great North Run 2025 · 7 September 2025 · Start fundraising for this event

Home-Start Leeds is a voluntary home visiting family support service that supports parents who have at least one child under the age of 7 years and/or expecting a baby. At Home-Start Leeds we support some of the most vulnerable and disadvantaged families struggling with complex and often multiple needs such as mental health, domestic abuse, learning difficulties, and substance misuse. We offer a unique service recruiting and training volunteers from all backgrounds who visit families in their own homes on a weekly basis for 3 -4 hours to offer emotional and practical support tailored to meet each family's individual needs. Volunteers work restoratively 'with' parent/s, using a strengths based approach, helping build confidence, resilience and coping skills to improve their well-being and family life. At Home-Start Leeds we believe that when parents are supported they grow in confidence, strengthen their relationships with their children and widen their links with the local community helping to build better lives for their children and themselves.
