Every week during term time 2 trained volunteers will read with your child(ren) in your home or on your doorstep. We will also leave a selection of books for you to continue enjoying together, based on your child(ren)'s interests.

We provide a skilled handyperson to carry out jobs such as fitting door and window locks, putting up shelves, building flat packed furniture and hanging doors.
The cost is £55 per hour (inclusive of VAT and parking) plus the cost of materials. There is a minimum charge of 1 hour.
A discount is given to people receiving a means tested benefit. This service is run as a social enterprise so any surplus is re-invested into the charity and used to assist those in need in the local area. This service is available to all H&F residents.
