About this cause

Home-Start Staffordshire Moorlands is a voluntary organisation committed to promoting the welfare of families with at least one child under five years of age. We are a charity offering support, friendship and practical help to parents who are experiencing difficulty and who live in the Staffordshire Moorlands District. Home-Start recruits and trains volunteers - who are usually parents themselves - to visit families at home who have at least one child under 5 and offer them informal, friendly and confidential support. To help give children the best possible start in life, Home-Start supports parents as they grow in confidence, strengthen their relationships with the children and widen their links with the local community. As this is a rural area, many families experience isolation.

How this cause brings people in the community together

Home-Start believes that children need a happy and secure childhood and that support in the early years can help children to grow up to reach their potential. Some families and children face difficulties, by providing support we can help reduce stress in the vital early years. By linking local volunteers with families in need we can help build a solid supportive community locally.
