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 Community Foundation
• Kent Creches
• Shepway Children’s Centres

and are grateful for support from:

• Asda Foundation
• Co-Op Local Community Fund
• Donations With A Difference
• The Ronald Cruickshanks Foundation
• Folkestone Lions Club
• Hythe and Romney Marsh Lions Club
• The Lawson Endowment for Kent
• In Kind Direct
• Painting Pixels
• Tesco/Groundwork

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

We always welcome donations which are used for the direct benefit of the families we support. If you would like to send a cheque, please make it payable to Home-Start Shepway. Alternatively, if you prefer to donate online, you can do so via our Facebook page.

If you are able to offer support by becoming a home visiting volunteer or by joining our management committee,  please contact us.
