Banbury charity looking for 'Fab Four' funders to help families in need

Home Start volunteers assist families in a number of ways including isolation, coping with twins, domestic abuse or helping out with a parent or child with disabilities.

A Banbury-based charity that provides emotional and practical support to parents is looking for four special donors to help them hit a fundraising target.

Home-Start Banbury, Bicester and Chipping Norton is looking for four donors, businesses or companies to raise £500 each to go towards helping the charity offer a vital lifeline to struggling families.

The charity is supported by the Four Acre Trust Trust which will match donations of £500 or more, meaning every donation is doubled and more support will go towards helping families with a wide range of issues, including financial worries to bereavement, postnatal depression, isolation, domestic abuse and more.

Aimee Evans, senior organiser at Home-Start Banbury, Bicester and Chipping Norton, said: “We’d be delighted to hear from any new supporters that might be generous enough to become one of our ‘Fab Four’.
