Home-Start Falkirk Ltd

About

Home-Start Falkirk delivers early intervention support to some of the most vulnerable families with young children across the entire Falkirk Council area. Our support targets families with young children who have multiple and complex needs and are struggling to cope with life's challenges. We have a strong track record, backed up by comprehensive monitoring and evaluation demonstrating our effectiveness. We are a unique resource in the area, recruiting and training a network of local community volunteers - many with first-hand experience of the issues our families face, with some having been previous beneficiaries of our support. At the heart of our approach is our in-home, peer mentor network of highly trained volunteers, who have completed a three-week training course and safeguarding training. . We also run two Family Support Groups, three drop-in groups and walking groups in some of the most disadvantaged communities in Falkirk.
