We are constantly on the move because of rising rent and service charges in our area. We would love to have a house in the community so that families and volunteers can drop by for support and advice.

    Situation

    Home-Start North and Mid Beds have been supporting families in the local community for 21 years It has been so difficult to raise the profile of our charity because we are hidden away in some back offices on Bedford High Street. We support families within their own community and so we would really like to be in a 3 bedroom house or bungalow with a sign above the door, welcoming our families in for advice and guidence. This year we will have to start looking at new premises again as our service charges are going to rise beyond our reach. We are about to reach our target of 100 volunteers and we will not stop there as we have plenty of people wanting to join us. You could say that we are victims of our own success:-)
