    About this opportunity:Home-Start Glenbeath is a newly merged organisation covering the Glenrothes and Cowdenbeath areas.

    Home-Start Glenbeath is part of a network of local Home-Starts throughout the UK which offer support and guidance to young families helping them to develop and grow. The families which Home-Start Glenbeath support are experiencing many difficulties including financial hardship, difficulties with their mental health and illness and loneliness.
