Family Support

Working alongside Families Being a parent has never been easy. It can be lonely, frustrating, heart-breaking and overwhelming. ​ Our dedicated Home-start Volunteers and Family Support Workers support families with one-to-one support. Before COVID this was done via a home visit. Now, we support families over the telephone, and other means, providing a wide range of targeted support for parents and their children.

We offer specialist mental health services to children and young people and their families.

Welcome to Staffordshire Connects - search and find help and support in your community.

We are the independent national champion for people who use health and social care services. We’re here to find out what matters to people, and help make sure their views shape the support they need.

Home-Start is a local community network of trained volunteers and expert support helping families with young children through their challenging times. We are there for parents when they need us the most because childhood can’t wait.

Every family needs a bit of support from time to time. We’re here to help. We work with families from before children are born until they’re in their twenties. We do this in lots of different ways – in local services, schools and online. We step in early to help build positive relationships. We bring parents together at support groups and in our children’s centres. We offer advice and help with parenting skills. And we never, ever judge.
