Overview of the contact centre
Our Child Contact Centre is a safe, friendly and neutral place where children with separated families can spend time with one or both parents and when appropriate, other family members. It is a child centre environment that puts the needs of the children first. Who runs LFLCCC? LFLCCC is run by a team of experience and qualified staff and volunteers headed by a Co-ordinator who have been through the DBS check and adhere to the quality framework of the National Association of Child Contact Centre (NACCC). How do I get started? Use of LFLCCC is by referral. The referral can be made by a parent, solicitor, family mediator, cafcass officer, social worker or family support worker. The person making the referral completes a referral form and sends it by post or email. Once the parents have been interviewed and accept our agreement for use of child contact service then contact can start. Services
