Home-Start are looking to recruit some new volunteers to support families in West Lothian
Home-Start is a charity which provides support to families with at least one child under five.
Volunteers would be matched with one family at a time, for a period of around 9 – 12 months. We are looking for volunteers who have a spare couple of hours a week. This could be a member of staff, a student, a parent, carer or Grandparent or just anyone who has a bit of spare to time and wants to help. The volunteer does not have to be a parent themselves and some of our families are just looking for someone to talk to or someone to give them company. Click on the link to find out a bit more about Home-Start and register your interest with us – https://www.home-start.org.uk/find-out-more-about-volunteering-for-home-start We are also looking for volunteers to help at family group sessions to interact with
Each volunteer will be required to complete a training course to enable them to support a family effectively. The short training course will be partly through elearning at their own pace and also through 4 face-to-face sessions (two and a half hour sessions). All expenses for volunteering will be provided. Please contact lisac@homestartwl.org.uk if you would like more information
Kind Regards
