...so that parenting
needn't end when a
partnership does

How are the visits arranged?
Visits are by referral. The referral can be made by a social worker, solicitor, family mediator, CAFCASS officer (formerly known as a court family welfare officer) or by a court order. The person making the referral fills out a referral form and sends it to the Centre Co-ordinator. You will be asked to sign an agreement about what you will do at the visits and when they will be. How often you come to the Centre depends on you and when the Centre is open.

It is advisable for you (the parent) and your child or children to come and see the Centre before your first arranged visit. This will help you get to know the Centre and the staff, and make your first visit easier.
