BECAUSE CHILDHOOD CAN’T WAIT….
We believe that children need a happy and secure childhood and that parents play the key role in giving their children a good start in life. The earliest years make the biggest impact so we want to see a society in which every parent has the support they need to give their children the best possible start.
We offer free support to young families within the Winchester area and surrounding districts

CHAIR’S REPORT
After the challenges of the prior two-years, the core team and our fantastic volunteers returned to normal service, with a real sense of enthusiasm and focus. Our crucial home-visit support resumed without restrictions, and our groups once again were back up to speed; which could not have come at a more important time, as the number of referrals rose.
The core team, led by Liz Stannard, as ever responded to the needs of our families, and once again grew as we welcomed Bonnie Stagg to the Home-Start ‘family’. Along with Sue, Jane, Charlotte and Liz Brown, the team successfully planned and delivered a wide range of events and experiences for our families, as well as some new initiatives. One of note being a pilot group for young teenage mum’s in Eastleigh. The Summer Fun Club was held for the third year running, and despite the heat was a great success. As in previous years, it created many great memories for those who attended. Thanks to all those who made the event possible.
As ever, we could not achieve what we do throughout the year without our volunteers. How lucky we are to have such a group of committed members of our Home-Start family, who help in many different ways: through home-visits, at the groups, other family support occasions and at many of our fundraising events. During the year we welcomed our latest cohort of new volunteers who completed their five weeks of training, all of whom added to the depth of support we are able to provide. That said, we are always in need of more support, so we will continue to run training courses for more volunteers to meet the constant flow of referrals we receive from more and more families in our area.
Not only did our team and range of services expand during the year, but so did our Board of Trustees. We welcomed Joanna Chapman-Andrews and Tina Gericke during the first half of the year, both with Home-Start volunteering experience, and then later in the year Jane Skelton, a retired Home-Start Senior Coordinator, joined the Board. The three of them bring a wealth of front-line Home-Start related experience.
While we could not achieve what we do without the amazing commitment of our core team and army of fantastic volunteers, overseen by a great Board of Trustees, we could not function without our wide range of financial supporters. From individual donors, our ‘Friends of Home-Start’, corporate sponsors, trusts and foundations, the contribution from the city council, and the commitments of our volunteers on the Home-Start Events Team, all of their collective contributions are essential; never more than now at a time of increasing costs and demands on our services. Without Home-Start Winchester & District many families in Winchester and the surrounding area would have nowhere else to access the support they need. A very big thank you to you all, as each year we face the challenge of raising sufficient funds to meet our financial obligations.
Finally, as I sign off and hand over the Chair’s baton of responsibility to Stephanie Durrant, a number of very personal thank you’s. For all the support and camaraderie I have received from my fellow Trustees over the last few years, to the core team for their commitment and patience, to our fantastic volunteers for their dedication and selflessness, and to all those who have financially supported Home-Start Winchester & District. Last, but certainly not least, thank you to our two amazingly supportive Patrons, Alison Wakeham and Sally Stewart; always there whenever we need them.
Barry Page,
Chair & Trustee

TEAM NEWS
Spring Term 2022
This quarter we had the opportunity to pilot a well-being course for parents as well as a group for children with developmental delay—Best Start. We also received funding from the Worthy Churches to set up a weekly drop-in at Tubbs Hall at Kings Worthy where the children share a healthy meal together and the parents have the opportunity to chat.
Summer Fun Club
We hosted another wonderfully successful Summer Fun Club in marquees on the meadow at Lanterns. This was enjoyed by 51 parents and 81 children and was supported by a small team of volunteers. There were lots of things to do and many friendships were made.

TEAM NEWS CONTINUED
Autumn Term 2022
In October we welcomed Bonnie Stagg to the Home-Start team as Family Group Leader and as part of her role she set up a weekly group for very young mums in Eastleigh. We celebrated Christmas with a two course lunch for all our families at the Salvation Army Hall catered by Munch and Liz and Helen were privileged to be invited to the Royal Foundation carol service at Westminster Abbey.
Spring Term 2023
This term we enjoyed working alongside Babs Isaac, the CAP Coach, to offer a budgeting course to our families funded by Winchester City Council. As the world has opened up after COVID we have attended various networking events including a Volunteer Fayre run by Community First. Our very first Easter walk and Easter egg hunt with families was a great success and we welcomed Volunteer Group 20 to the Home-Start family.

FUNDRAISING
The Events Team has run a number of fundraising events over the past year.
We kicked off with our annual Quiz Night on April Fools’ Day. Over 100 people attended the event which was held in Itchen Abbas Village Hall and was generously sponsored by IVC. We also held a raffle and one lucky couple won a week’s holiday in The Algarve. There were other fantastic prizes donated by Leckford Water Gardens; The Flowers Pots Inn and the Waitrose Fishing Lake.
The Swing Band evening in June was held in the magnificent 15th century Pinglestone Barn kindly made available to us by Lord and Lady Wakeham. The Kasbah Swing Band provided musical treats from the Big Band era and guests were served a Hog Roast from Soles Butchers in Alresford with home-made salads and desserts created by the Events Team. Bill Rawles Classic Cars were the generous sponsors of the evening and brought with them a 1961 Austin Healey racing car which proved a great hit with the boys!
We were incredibly grateful to Rick Stein’s Restaurant in Winchester who kindly held a Coffee and Cake morning in support of Home-Start for the second year running. Shoppers were persuaded in for a reviving cup of coffee and a slice of cake.
The annual Car Boot Sale was held in Bramdean on a boiling hot day in August. The location was generously made available to us by Sally and Alastair Stewart, Home-Start Winchester patron and Home-Start national patron respectively. Buyers who braved the heat were rewarded with some great bargains, but we’d like more sellers this year, so clear out your cupboards!
The Bake Sale in St. Maurice’s Covert in Winchester was held on a freezing cold day in December. Friends and family were pressed into making cakes, bread, cupcakes, mince pies and brownies and the biscuit treats for dogs sold out in minutes!
Our Christmas card was designed last year by Alresford artist, Emma Trickle and was generously sponsored by Dutton Gregory, Solicitors. It was tough year for charity Christmas card sales. At the beginning there was no obvious charity card shop on the High Street; many people are now sending e-cards due to the price of postage; and also the last posting date was brought forward due to the postal strike. However, we still managed to sell over 450 packs.
I am incredibly grateful to the wonderful team of fabulous women who serve on the Events Group. They are tireless, enthusiastic and innovative and none of these events would be possible without them.

How you can help us
Our services are provided free to families and are largely funded by individual donations, proceeds from fundraising activities, sponsorship and grants from charitable trusts and third parties including Winchester City Council and BBC Children in Need.
Local authority funding has been reduced in recent years and fundraising is more challenging whilst the need for our support has grown. The challenge now is to raise funds from new sources and we are asking people to commit to supporting us by making a regular monthly payment.
Become a Friend of
Home-Start Winchester
The Friends of Home-Start Winchester programme was launched in summer 2020 and we are keen to see it develop further. Whilst all fundraising is obviously beneficial, this is the ‘gold standard’ . It is tax and time efficient for the donor and gives us financial security, allowing us to plan ahead. A standing order for £10 per month will enable us to provide emergency food vouchers while giving £30 per month will support a place in one of our family groups. Please will you help our families by becoming a Friend of Home-Start Winchester?

Could YOU be a volunteer?
Anyone with parenting experience is qualified to be a volunteer. But at another level we’re looking for people with very special skills of empathy, friendliness, adaptability and common sense.
Volunteers are trained, supported and supervised to Home-Start UK national standards. If you could spare two hours a week to work with families who are going through their most challenging times, please contact info@home-startwinchester.org.uk
Your skills and experience could help families from all backgrounds through their most challenging times.
