What is this service?

No special qualifications are required to volunteer with Home-Start. Many volunteers have parenting, grandparenting, or caregiving experience and a desire to support others during challenging times. You do not have to have children of your own to volunteer.

Our volunteers come from various backgrounds, bringing a range of professional and personal experiences to their role. Whether you have a background in nursing, working with children in a playgroup, or being an aunt or uncle, your skills can make a positive impact on a family.

We encourage applications from individuals with diverse backgrounds, including those from black and minority ethnic communities. We value diversity and actively welcome applicants from different faiths, LGBTQ+ individuals, and other minority groups to join our team.
