Parent + Family Support Volunteers will be matched with a parent or family to provide support during home visits, helping to:
- provide social support
- combat loneliness
- mentor
- help parents plan and manage competing priorities (housework, play, bonding, self-care, health)

Parent + Toddler Group Volunteers will support Home-Start facilitators at groups in Bo’ness, Denny, Grangemouth or Falkirk to:
- run arts and crafts activities
