This month sees the launch of H2O (Here to Help Oxford), a pilot scheme for befriending struggling families in East Oxford.

Parenting is full of challenges, and we want to be able to hold out a hand to parents who are feeling isolated, stressed or finding it difficult to cope. We are partnering with a local school and local churches in order to do this. If your church would like to get involved, please get in touch!

We are still looking for volunteers. Could you give up to two hours a week, for a minimum of six months, and be prepared to help a family realise their own strengths as well as be changed yourself? We will give you training and regular support.

If you are interested, please email Hannah at Doorsteps or call her on 01865 811660.
