Home Start Charity

On the 28th June, Graeme Dawson will be raising money for Home Start UK during the St Andrews 10 Course Challenge. Home-Start's informal and friendly support for families with young children provides a lifeline to thousands of parents and children in over 337 communities across the UK and with forces families in Germany and Cyprus.

Their support is free, confidential and non-judgemental. In fact, almost 25% of families refer themselves to Home-Start - which speaks for itself. They help to increase the confidence and independence of families by:


Visiting families in their own homes to offer support, friendship and practical assistance, Reassuring parents that their childcare problems are not unusual or unique, Encouraging parents' strengths and emotional well-being for the ultimate benefit of their children trying to get the fun back into family life
