Our team
Home-Start Herts is made up of 13 staff, over 70 trained volunteer family mentors and a board of trustees and committee members, all of whom bring specialist skills and experience to support the charity’s work across Hertfordshire.
We are extremely grateful to be able to count on the support of our ambassadors, who help us raise awareness of Home-Start Herts and the work we do.
We are also very grateful to be able to count on the support of our Board of Trustees, who voluntarily give their time to oversee the management and administration of the charity ensuring that it remains fully focused on the needs of its the wider Hertfordshire community.
