Home-Start Guildford

Home-Start Guildford Home-Start Guildford is part of the UK’s leading family support charity.

Home-Start Guildford is an independent local charity, which provides support to families struggling to cope, with at least one child under 5, who live in Guildford borough.

Families may need emotional or practical support to give their children the best possible start in life. Examples of types of need might be: post natal depression, lone parent/ family breakdown, social isolation, multiple b

irths, disability or illness (of parent or child), financial worries and domestic abuse.

The majority of our referrals come from health visitors, with referrals also coming from other health professionals, children centres, and social workers and from other charities, such as Guildford Action for Families. Families can also refer themselves, please visit our website for more information: www.hsguildford.org.uk
