Description

The service includes the total arrangement and supervision of contact between children and their family members where a child or young person is not able to live with their family.

The service is a statutory duty under the Children Act 1989 and forms an integral part of our offer to the most vulnerable families and young people. Service delivery will be from a range of community venues which aim to make better use of underused facilities as well as reduce the amount of travel required by children to attend contact.
