What is a Child Contact Centre?

 A Child Contact Centre is a safe, friendly and neutral place where children of separated families can spend time with one or both parents and sometimes other family members. They are child-centred environments that provide toys, games and facilities that reflect the diverse needs of children affected by family breakdown.

This is advance notice that the AGM and conference will take place on 20 September 2008 at Trent Vineyard, Easter Park, Lenton Lane, Nottingham NG7 2PX.

We are delighted to welcome keynote speakers Adrienne Katz (Young Voice, Anti-Bullying Alliance) and James Pirrie of Resolution (Leader of Resolution's 'Parenting after Parting' project).
