Scottish MPs have praised the work of charity Home-Start UK across its communities. The UK-wide charity works to support parents and families at times of difficulties and last year in Scotland its volunteers worked with more than 2,000 families and 4,000 children across 32 communities. A debate in the Scottish Parliament saw a number of MSPs praise the impact that Home-Start UK has had. Ahead of next year’s Scottish Parliament elections, the charity is calling for volunteer-led support for families and children to be made available to every community. Visit: www.home-start.org.uk
