Studio selects Home-Start as charity partner
Studio has selected family support charity Home-Start UK as its new charity partner for the next 12 months.
The partnership will enable the online value retailer to support hundreds of families through the charity’s network across the country.
Paul Kendrick, managing director of Studio.co.uk, said: “At Studio we want to support communities across the UK by helping them to thrive and we are therefore incredibly excited to be partnering with Home-Start UK. The charity has incredible passion and an outstanding track record in helping families and supporting them in getting back up on their feet and overcome challenges they may face.”
Studio said staff and customers were asked for their input in the selection process and that the final shortlist was put to a vote.
Home-Start UK’s network of 13,500 trained community volunteers provide tailored support to around 56,000 children in 27,000 families each year. It can help with issues such as post-natal depression, isolation, physical health problems and bereavement or with families feeling generally overwhelmed.
