Home-Start
Dukeries is part of a national charity which recruits local volunteers
to help support familes with young children in their own homes.
If you are experiencing difficult times and have at least one child
under 5, Home-Start could help you.
Home-Start Dukeries is always looking for volunteers who are parents
themselves and in return for a few hours a week, we will give you
an interesting preparation course, generous travel expenses and
loyalty bonuses. Volunteering can be the first foot on the ladder
towards gaining a job and it will give you a lot of satisfaction
to know that you have helped someone. |
