Home-Start Charity

Home-Start is one of the leading family support charities in the UK. They train volunteers who visit families with young children in their homes, offering parent-to-parent support when it is needed the most, because childhood won’t wait. Their volunteers are non-judgemental, giving families compassionate and confidential support. The earliest years make the biggest impact and Home-Start makes sure those years count, so that no child’s future is limited.

I have volunteered for Home-Start in various parts of the country for the last eight years and been placed with 3 different families. I have seen first hand the difference that volunteers make to families and their children.

 

‘My parents haven’t been involved in the way my volunteer was. I wasn’t used to people being interested in what I was doing or bearing problems with me. I could be really honest about bad days and worries. I always felt better after I had seen her.’ (Supported mum)

‘If it wasn't for Home-Start, I would not have the confidence to go for a job, which will be a big life changer for me and my children.’ (Supported mum)


The Photoshoot

This is a completely bespoke portraiture experience at a location in The Cotswold Region that is personal and unique to you, be that a local park, place of interest or even just at your house. 

These shoots are tailored just for you and your family, with either a call or online consultation beforehand to discuss any specific requirements you might need from the shoot.

The shoot lasts for an hour, is great fun and a lovely experience for all of the family. A week later you will be invited back to Saraya's studio in Charlton Kings to view a selection of images from your shoot and to choose some of your favourite images to display in your  home.

Prices for additional prints start at £95 for a 10x8 archival print, and framed images start at £195.

Digital and print packages are also available starting at £350.

Please note that your entire donation to Homestart Cotswolds will be received by them to continue the important work that they do in your community.
