I want to support Home-Start in East Lancashire. They are a great local charity who support families who are struggling for whatever reason. Issues range from post-natal depression to poverty and isolation to domestic violence.
Volunteers are parents themselves so they know that it can be tough and they don't judge. We visit the family in their own home and provide individual support to them. This ranges from simply being there to listen to providing practical assistance to help the family achieve the changes that they want to bring about.
The Covid-19 outbreak has placed further strain on families and we are working to stay connected with them remotely and helping them to get vital food, baby goods and other supplies delivered to them during the outbreak as well as providing activity packs for the children.
