Home-Start Family Support in Bury

Home-Start Rochdale and Bury is a Family Support Charity providing practical and emotional support for parents and children experiencing stress or difficulties.

Any family living in Bury with a child pre birth to 12 years of age, can access support from an experienced parent volunteer who can visit them at home for an hour or two each week.

We have a team of dedicated, skilled volunteers who all have parenting experience, who visit families at home for 2-3 hours per week. Volunteers are trained and checked by the Disclosure and Barring Service prior to being matched with families.

Emotional support and practical help is offered for as long as it is needed. Volunteers build on parents skills, help boost self-esteem and confidence whilst enabling them to cope with the pressures of family life. Our aim is to help reduce stress and prevent crisis and breakdown.

Home-Start can also introduce families who need short term support, to one of our experienced Support Worker.

Our Support Worker can help families who experience more complex difficulties at Early Help level.
