• Providing a wide range of personal and social development opportunities
• Offering quality support based on individual needs to enable personal development and life skills

The HVFSS is focused on families with a Tier 2 level of need, with children aged 0-11 years, with at least one child under the age of 5 years. The aim is to provide tailored support to families in response to identified need, through a combination of home visits delivered by staff and volunteers and signposting to other community services.
