Through a network of more than 16,000 trained parent volunteers, Home-Start supports thousands of parents who are struggling to cope. Home-Start’s families need support for many reasons, including post-natal depression, disability, bereavement, the illness of a parent or child, or social isolation.
Parents supporting other parents: it's a simple idea that really works.
At the heart of Home-Start is the belief that parents have the key role in creating a secure and happy environment for their children. It's just that sometimes they need a bit of help. That's where Home-Start's volunteers come in.
