“All the staff from Home Start are extremely knowledgeable and professional. The service is invaluable – it will be a ‘dark day’ when the support from our volunteer ends.”
When parents can’t cope children suffer, the impact of which can last a lifetime.
Help Home-Start Birmingham improve the life chances of local children.
Home-Start Birmingham reaches out to families who are struggling to cope, for a whole range of reasons from illness and disability to poor mental health and family breakdown.
In more recent years we have seen an increase in supporting families where poverty and deprivation is impacting on their ability to parent.
Birmingham has one of the highest rates of child poverty and deprivation in the uk, meaning the life chances of local children are affected greatly. We have to break the cycle of deprivation, so that future generations have the opportunity to flourish. We believe that every child has the right to a positive and fulfilling future.
Home-Start Birmingham prides itself on being able to react quickly and sensitively to the needs of the local families it supports. But as life gets harder for parents and children, the need for our support increases.
Please help us to invest in the future of our children. You can do this in so many ways:
