Home-Start Merton supports families, with at least one child under the age of 5, living in the London Borough of Merton.

We run a Fathers Group fortnightly on Sundays between 2-4 pm. We provide activities for children – painting, crafts, garden and soft play area.

Fathers have opportunities to connect with other Dads and have fun with their children.

Supportive trained staff and volunteers on hand for advice and information.

Free refreshments and fruit available.
