Charity
Home-start Barnet, Brent and Harrow
Home-Start Barnet, Brent and Harrow (part of the national organisation Home-Start UK) trains volunteers to provide emotional and practical support to parents who live in the boroughs of Barnet, Brent and Harrow and who have at least one child under the age of 5.
By visiting a family in their own home and offering friendship our volunteers represent a lifeline for many families who are struggling to cope with such things as isolation, depression, multiple births, disabilities etc.
We also run parent and toddler groups, crèches and parenting classes, all of which depend on the help of volunteers.
The role requires that you gives you up to 3 hours per week of your time together with time for ongoing training and support meetings. Comprehensive volunteer training ( includes Safeguarding ) is given at outset, free of charge. It is followed up with by ongoing training, supervision and support.
