Home-Start Għawdex, which supports families with children aged under five, also helps families going through multiple births, illness, isolation or lack of support. Home-Start Għawdex works with the help of volunteers.
These volunteers, who are parents themselves, are ready to give some of their time to others and share their own experience of parenting through a parent-to-parent relationship. Volunteers visit families in their homes for a number of hours every week.
As part of the Home-Start Għawdex awareness campaign to publicise the service and recruit additional volunteers, an awareness campaign evening was held earlier this month in Marsalforn.
