📅 Last Friday, our Chair of Trustees, Sarah, hosted a heartfelt farewell celebration to thank David Neale, our Treasurer, and congratulate him on his retirement. David, a true gentleman, with an incredible bank of knowledge, has supported Home-Start Essex since its formation in 2017. Prior to that, he dedicated many years as the Treasurer for Home-Start Chelmsford. It's easy to forget that our trustees are volunteers too, giving up their time for free to support our charity. A huge thank you, David, for your unwavering dedication and support over the years. Wishing you a long and joyful retirement! You will be very much missed. #HomeStartEssex #Farewell #ThankYou #CommunitySupport #VolunteerAppreciation Home-Start UK

This #babycommunicationweek, our goal is to highlight baby as an active participant in relationships, equipped with social skills and a strong desire to bond. We focus on five key messages to: 💜Enhance parents' understanding of their baby's communication. 💜Ensure babies receive responsive care from calm, informed parents. 💜Foster happy, healthy parent-baby relationships. #BabyCommunicationWeek #HomeStartEssex #EarlyParenting #infantcare #understandaffirmnurture Home-Start UK

🌞 We had a beautiful sunny day at Cressing Temple Barns recently with our volunteers based in mid Essex, joined by our Trustee Ed, who has taken on the Trustee lead role for supporting our volunteering sector. We strolled through the stunning gardens and enjoyed a mini picnic. Janet, Home-Start Essex co-ordinator of this group, presented everyone with a 'Thank You' certificate and a chocolate gift. A huge thank you to all our volunteers for the incredible work you do to support our families! 🧡 #HomeStartEssex #VolunteerAppreciation #CommunitySupport #ThankYou #cressingtemplebarns #braintree
