In the aftermath of a breakup, it can sometimes be difficult for a parent who does not live with their children to maintain contact with them. Parents going through a tough divorce or separation, or arguing always, can find it too difficult to see each other. Children need a safe, welcoming place to spend time with their parents or other significant family members.
The central concept of a child contact centre is to offer a safe, friendly, neutral, child-centred environment for children to meet their non-resident parents or family members.
You can spend time with your children in a supported or supervised context. You can also use the centres to collect and return the children to the other parent at the start and end of visits. Adults do not have to see or speak to each other at contact centres.
Relationships Scotland runs 41 child contact centres throughout Scotland.
