Home-Start HOST is a local charity of trained volunteers and dedicated, experienced staff.  We help families with young children flourish during the years of early childhood, supporting parents across Tameside, Oldham, Stockport, Bolton & Glossop.

Children who are raised in a stable and loving family environment are more likely to have a positive and healthy future.  We are here to support parents, so they can give their children the best start in life.

Our support is compassionate, confidential and non-judgemental. We know how tough parenting can be and the difference the right support can make.

We offer a range of support, from one-to-one support in the home to specialist early learning, breastfeeding and perinatal support.
