The earliest years make the biggest impact: Home-Start make sure those years count so that no child’s future is limited
We are there for when parents need us the most, because childhood can’t wait.
Welcome to Home-Start in East Lancashire
Local Home-Start’s are rooted in the communities in which they serve. Each Home-Start charity is managed locally but supported nationally by Home-Start UK, who offer direction, training, information and guidance to local Home-Start’s and ensure consistent and quality support for parents and children.
Home-Start in East Lancashire believes that children need a happy and secure childhood and that parents play the key role in helping them achieve their full potential. Home-Start wants to see a society in which all parents have the support they need to give their children the best start in life.
