What our Trustees say

"Home-Start is an organisation that makes you feel valued and allows you to discover skills you didn't know you had."
Kate,Trustee Home-Start Telford and Wrekin

"I have met a whole range of people that I would otherwise not have met. It has provided me with a whole experience and richness I wouldn't have got if I hadn't done this."
Neil Spurrier, Trustee, Home-Start Richmond

"You need to think of it as a whole chain from the management committee through to the families."
Graham Malin, Trustee, Home-Start Leeds

"You are responsible for money and for people's lives but you've just got to treat people as you would want to be treated. It's given me that confidence that you can contribute."
Maria Holder, Trustee, Home-Start Wellingborough

"I like the sense of responsibility and I care deeply about what I'm doing."
Vali Hale, Trustee, Home-Start Bromley

"Whilst I work with a lot of local organisations, Home-Start is the only one where I am a trustee, because I do believe it provides a vital service locally, and I wanted to get more involved with the project and help to support it."
Zoe Hopkins, Trustee, Home-Start Kingstanding

"I feel passionately that people in the commercial sector should provide their skills and experience to the voluntary sector and also recognise how much the early years influence behaviour, therefore any appropriate help and support is an investment in the future."
Lesley Michalis, Trustee, Home-Start Slough
