Home-Start Caithness

Home-Start Caithness Support and friendship for families with young children since 1999

Home-Start volunteers visit families at home each week, supporting parents in situations as diverse as isolation, bereavement, multiple births, illness, disability or who are just finding parenting a struggle. They provide non-judgemental practical and emotional support and help build the family’s confidence and ability to cope.

The kind things you do often without realising can have a big impact on others.

We often hear out volunteers say “I just go round, have a cuppa, chat, and a play with the kids, I think I get more from visiting than the family does”…but sometimes that volunteer might be the only person to visit them all week.

Our families tell us how their volunteer is the one reliable, consistent presence in their lives.

Their volunteer isn’t there out of obligation, or because it’s their job. They are there because they want to be there, they want to help, because they care.

Society has changed, but our need for human contact hasn’t. Become the difference in a family’s lives here in Caithness.

Be that person who can be relied upon.

Your kindness can change lives.
