Sauda is a ray of sunshine! She has volunteered for Home-Start since November 2018 and in that time has supported 2 families; covid meant we couldn't do home-visiting for a long while. She brings positivity to the family and the children always love her, she is able to support both practically and emotionally. When supporting families Sauda will support in the home, going to appointments/outings, helping develop bonds between parent and child and doing our school readiness work with families. Sauda is reliable and her manner with families has always been kind and non-judgmental, she works hard and has a busy life but still always finds time to do her volunteering. She will be a great asset to your organisation, if you need any further information, please don't hesitate to ask. Thank you.
