Objectives

Home-Start Ashford was founded in 1988. We have a team of dedicated, experienced volunteers who provide support for families with at least one child under the age of five who may be experiencing a wide range of difficulties.

We help to increase the confidence and independence of families by:

  • Visiting them in their own homes to offer support, friendship and practical assistance.
  • Re-assuring parents that their problems are not unusual or unique.
  • Enabling parents to develop their confidence, strengths and emotional well-being.
  • Encouraging the fun and pleasures of family life.

Activities

Our support aims to offer a holistic approach to the family and work towards their identified goals. Our core service is twofold with home-visiting volunteers and our Chill with Dad group. We also offer social events and targeted specialist support such as baby massage, Lego intervention, drawing & talking and play support.
