Partnership

Home-Start is valued by other agencies as a useful addition to the services they provide for families.  The volunteer’s friendly support is not a substitute for professional services and the best results are achieved through an active partnership between statutory agencies and Home-Start.

Home-Start Shepway works in partnership with other statutory and voluntary agencies. We have particularly close links with:

• BBC Children in Need
• Big Lottery Fund
• Gingerbread
• Kent Creches
• Shepway Children’s Centres

and are grateful for support from:

• Asda Foundation
• Co-Op Local Community Fund
• The Ronald Cruickshanks Foundation
• Folkestone Lions Club
• Hythe and Romney Marsh Lions Club
• In Kind Direct
• Painting Pixels
• Tesco/Groundwork

We are also fortunate to receive help and support from local businesses, which is always greatly appreciated.

If you are able to offer support by becoming a home visiting volunteer, or by joining our management committee, or are able to give a donation however small, please contact us.  If you would like to send a cheque, please make it payable to Home-Start Shepway.

We always welcome donations which are used for the direct benefit of the families we support.
