We’re excited to announce that on 1st July 2022 we officially changed our name from Home-Start South East Dorset to Home-Start Wessex!
We have rebranded as Home-Start Wessex to better represent the growing numbers of families we support.
Last year we supported 246 families, our most ever and demand continues to rise.
Our new name reflects the wide area we serve, which runs right across Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch, the Purbecks, up to Blandford and Cranborne and across into the Wiltshire and Hampshire borders.
The name Wessex is well known and well recognised by our local community and also opens up new opportunities for funding to ensure we remain viable and sustainable.
Our charity number remains the same and services remain unchanged.
Please do contact us if you need any further information or have any questions about this name change.
