Alison Jones, who has joined Home-Start.
A NEW face has joined the team at Home-Start Herefordshire.
Alison Jones replaces Jo Grafton, who has started maternity leave, and will be responsible for co-ordinating marketing and recruiting volunteers.
Home-Start supports young families across Herefordshire and Alison knows that volunteers who can give help and support to families with at least one child under the age of five are vital to the organisation.
Last year, Home-Start supported 176 families with 69 volunteers who are parents themselves.
After training, they visit families each week, spending several hours with them.
Calls to Home-Start are increasing and anyone interested in helping can call 01432 371212 for an informal chat.
