Story

Home-Start Garioch has been supporting families in the Garioch and Formartine area of Aberdeenshire since 1995 through their most challenging times. We want to ensure those years count so that no child's future is limited by working with families to build on their strengths and give them the support they tell us they need. A unique service, recruiting and training volunteers, usually parents themselves, to support families, visiting them weekly in their own homes. Thanks to the generosity of 76 volunteers donating their time, we are able to support in excess of 100 families a year. Parents supporting parents through friendship, offering practical and emotional support for families with young children who are experiencing stress and difficult times.
