Home-Start Central Bedfordshire

We believe that every child deserves the best start in life. Our family and children’s charity mission is –


To safeguard, protect and preserve the physical and mental good health of children and parents

To prevent cruelty to and maltreatment of children

To relieve sickness, poverty and need amongst children and parents

To promote good parenting

To encourage and develop parent’s strengths and well-being for the ultimate benefit of the children

To encourage families to widen their network of relationships and to effectively use services within the community

To work towards the increased confidence and independence of families by offering support, friendship and practical assistance


That’s why our dedicated volunteers have been providing vital support services to local vulnerable families with young children since 1984! Our Family & Children’s Charity covers Central Bedfordshire as well as Luton; supporting local children and empowering parents and families across the county.
