Home-Start Hillingdon was established at the beginning of 1999, and is based in Hillingdon. This family support service for families in Hillingdon and the surrounding area was set up to offer a service, free at the point of access that would be available to all and completely independent of statutory agencies.
The scheme has 5 members of staff who work closely with a network of around 30 trained volunteers who carry out home-visiting support to families.
Home-Start Hillingdon recruits and trains local volunteers and carefully matches a volunteer to visit a family in their own home for a couple of hours a week. All of the families we support must have at least one child under five.
