Charity registered in Scotland SC030943
Home-Start East Lothian provides volunteer befrienders to support families under stress, who have at least one pre-school child. Families choose to have a volunteer, Home-Start recruits volunteers from all over East Lothian, and look for people who are committed, reliable, confidential, non-judgemental and most importantly have parenting skills. Potential volunteers undergo a preparation course, and after being matched with a family receive support and supervision from the co-ordinator.
