Service members are supported by a multidisciplinary team including outreach workers, an in-house psychotherapist, veteran peer mentors, and wellbeing coordinators who help build emotional resilience, practical life skills, and a sense of belonging. Everything, we, as leaders, needed but never received.

Our vision is to inspire a movement of resilience and empowerment, cultivating a healthier future for all. To create a society where every veteran and those from their community, has access to safe housing, the tools, resources, and support needed to lead a healthy, balanced life.

Home-Start Hampshire has an established history of supporting families in the Armed Forces, meeting the discrete needs of both serving and veteran families ensuring the best possible outcomes for children and families. By supporting families early on, we give children the chance to grow up with prospects rather than problems.

We provide practical and emotional support for Armed Forces Families who are experiencing isolation and loneliness, those who are disadvantaged through lack of community integration or frequent changes in education settings, and those disadvantaged through poor physical, emotional and mental health.

The one-to-one support is tailored to the families’ needs and is often supplemented by an opportunity to attend group activities and parenting courses. Our primary aim is to keep families together, prevent crisis or possible family breakdown and prevent the need for welfare or statutory intervention.
