WELCOME TO HOME-START

Haringey, Hackney and Waltham Forest

A charity operating since 2002 supporting children and families

Supporting

Our staff are experienced in matching volunteers to the needs of each individual family to provide you with the help that you need it.

Volunteering

We are very grateful to our existing volunteers who do such a wonderful job. You can join them and help to transform parents' and childrens' lives.

Fundraising

We rely on grants and donations to fund our most vital work supporting Haringey, Hackney and Waltham Forest families. Can you help?

Because childhood can’t wait

What do we do?

A local community network of trained volunteers and expert support helping families with young children through their challenging times.

Why do we do it?

The earliest years make the biggest impact: Home-Start make sure those years count so that no child’s future is limited.

How do we do it?

No judgement, just compassionate, confidential help and expert support. Starting in the home, our approach is as individual as the people we’re helping.

The issue

A child’s earliest years are irreplaceable. Without a stable, loving and nurturing environment, a very young child will not develop the vital foundations they need.

Support us through GoFundMe

As a charity we rely on the generosity of donations. Your donation will fund our most vital work supporting Haringey, Hackney and Waltham Forest families.

Family Stories

“We really appreciate the support. Having another adult to take the pressure. Knowing that when the knock comes it’s the volunteer, for us it makes such a great difference, to not be tense.”
Family A
“The volunteer was amazing. She helped me. She’s made a huge difference, when I was ill and had no support she made me feel I was not alone. My daughter got close to her. ‘The Volunteer’ has changed our lives. The support has been life-changing. Because of my illness, knowing Home-Start is there and the support you give is absolutely helpful.”
Family B
“Mother is appreciative of the support, she says it was very helpful and that the volunteer was really nice, always punctual and had a nice sense of humour. Mother really enjoyed the support, as did her daughter. Her daughter was always excited to see the volunteer and asked about him often. Now that the support has come to an end, mum is bracing herself for her daughter asking when they would see the volunteer again.”
