Having a friend can be one of the most enriching and supportive relationships in a person's life ... and it can easily be taken for granted. At Home-Start South Hams, Plymouth and Tavistock we value friendship
Many parents, desperate to do the right thing to give their children the best start in life, find they are fighting against the odds.
What some parents may see as a 'simple trip out to the shops' for a parent who has triplets in tow can seem impossible.
Home-Start South Hams, Plymouth and Tavistock supports parents with at least one child under 5 who are dealing with issues such as...
- isolation
- sickness
- disability
- mental health
- domestic abuse
- multiple births
- difficult relationships
We can help these parents to feel that the 'impossible' is possible!
One parent described Home-Start as 'ARMBANDS IN DEEP WATER' because we offer a lifeline to parents who feel overwhelmed and in desperate need of support, reassurance and friendship.
Our office is normally open from 9.00 – 2.00 pm Monday to Friday and an answerphone is available to take messages at other times.
