Visiting the same 5 families every week, Doorstep Library volunteers turn up on the doorstep with rucksacks full of stories. They started in H&F in 2010 and now run 6 projects and visit over 300 children weekly.
By making reading fun first, they inspire children to experience the joy of stories and books. They empower parents to get involved in their children’s education and, sometimes, we’re there as extra support, whether we’re signposting a local family service, lending an ear, or just being a friendly face.
Family Support is here to help Hammersmith & Fulham children, young people and their families thrive. Our children’s centres are on hand, so mums, dads, carers and children can make new friends and enjoy play and learning experiences together.
If making ends meet is hard right now, foodbank vouchers are available to all families and you could also be eligible for fresh fruit and veg vouchers.
When times are tough, we are here to support you every step of the way.
Aged 16-24, not in education, employment of training and with a serious passion for sport… apply for the Community Activator Coach (Level 2) qualification.
