             Nearly 200 legs – some with feet, some with paws – joined today’s fundraising dog walk in the countryside around Alresford. The guided walks ended with a delicious lunch organised by our amazing Events team and joined by the Mayor, Cllr. Vivian Achwal.

             A sad day indeed! David has always been a good supporter of Home-Start Winchester. His wife April is a wonderful long-standing volunteer and a trustee until last year. We send our love to all the 
           We are so sad that our own David Chidgey died peacefully earlier today following a period of illness. A good man, and a formidable campaigner, he won a stunning by-election in Eastleigh in 1994 and spoke passionately on a range of issues in both the Commons &Lords. RIP, kind sir.

             “ No parents need to suffer in silence.”I’m so proud of how far Noah and I have come. But it wouldn’t have happened if I hadn’t taken that first step with Home-Start. My volunteer and the whole team wiped my tears and picked me up when I was at my lowest point.” #homestart
