HOME START
Home-Start Harlow is a local charity supporting families with young children who may be finding the demands of family life a struggle for any number of reasons. For some parents, it’s a particular struggle because they are also having to cope with issues such as post-natal depression, their or their child’s illness or disability, isolation or multiple births. A carefully selected volunteer, who has parenting experience themselves, regularly visits a family, in their own home, offering emotional and practical support through difficult times for as long as it is helpful or needed. This friendly parent-to-parent support is a simple yet effective way of enabling families to get back on track.
Home-Start Harlow is currently recruiting volunteers to take part in our 10-week Preparation course to become home-visiting volunteers. If you are a parent yourself, have 2-3 hours spare per week and an interest in the welfare of local families please call 01245 847410 for more information.
