2017
In early 2017 we changed our name of the company to Children’s Contact Services to reflect the service we now provide.
-
2016
After 4 years of operation, in 2016 we expanded our services to cover all over the South of England, West of England and Wales providing a much-needed service to vulnerable children and their families.

2014
In 2014 after being established in the local community throughout Bristol and the surrounding areas we achieved enhanced accreditation from the National Association of Child Contact Services after years’ worth of hard work.
The Service was set up to provide Supervised and Supported contact in a safe environment within Bristol and the surrounding area. The service has successfully developed to provide detailed reports for court purposes over the years.
Using the company’s wide connections, we were commissioned by local authorities to deliver contact services for families going through separation. The learning from this direct work with parents gave our staff confidence to work with families in need and offer interventions that prevented family breakdown and children entering the care system.

Our Message
The company was formed with this simple message that is still extant today “This is for all the children who don’t live with their families… ‘We can’t take away the past but we can sure help make the future better.”
