Home-Start Portsmouth is looking for a new Chairperson to lead our Board of Trustees and contribute to the development and success of the charity.
Home-Start Portsmouth supports families with young children through their most challenging times. Our vision is a world where no parent feels alone in the critical task of raising children.
The charity is part of the Home-Start UK federation of more than 80 Home-Starts.
Through our expert staff team and local community of more than 100 trained volunteers, we offer practical and emotional support to parents and families by spending time in their homes, running parenting programmes and offering stay and play groups, and school-readiness programmes in the community.
In 2022-23, we supported 1,394 families through projects and community groups, and 788 children. Our volunteers delivered almost 17,000 hours of support to families.
It's an exciting time to join the charity as, this year, we are on target to triple income, have doubled the staff team and are offering services to many more families in the city.
The role
We are looking for a strong and passionate Chair to lead and enable the Board of Trustees at Home-Start Portsmouth (made up of eight Trustees and CEO).
You will support us in developing and delivering a focused and robust rolling three-year business plan, to deliver on all governance requirements, and to be a highly visible member of the community.

Home-Start Portsmouth supports a diverse range of families across the city, and we are keen to diversify our Board to reflect the families we support. We actively seek and encourage applications from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) individuals, and men, as we are underrepresented in these areas.
If you have the experience we are looking for, and want to get involved in something meaningful locally, we'd love to hear from you.
