Any disclosure of the confidential information may only be undertaken with your expressed permission, for the purpose of assisting your family. The only exception is where it is considered necessary for the welfare and protection of a child when information shall be shared with the appropriate authority.

 

Home-Start keeps factual and statistical information about all the families it supports. You can ask to see the information we have kept about you at any time. Our records comply with Data Protection requirements. We tell the person who referred you to Home-Start that we have started to support you and when our support ends.

Mission Statement

 

Home-Start Bedford Borough is a registered charity offering support, friendship and practical help to

parents with at least one child under the five years of age.

 

We do this in local communities by training and recruiting volunteers, who are usually parents themselves, to visit families to offer informed, friendly and confidential support.
