Portland Child Contact Centre (Bishop's Stortford)
Contact Mrs Gwen Cherry, Centre Co-ordinator
The Christian Outreach Centre (aka The Hub), Portland Road, Bishop's Stortford CM23 3SL.
* Meeting times:
1st and 3rd Saturday of the month between 9.30am and 12.30pm (each contact for a maximum of 2 hours).
We provide a neutral environment where children from separated families are able to meet with their non-resident parent, and sometimes other family members, in a supported setting. We have been used with families where the children’s ages range from a few months to mid-teens.
The needs and interests of the children are paramount. We provide toys, games, jigsaws etc and refreshments in a main hall area where we can accommodate up to 4 families at one time. If parents do not wish to meet, we have separate rooms and entrances so that this can be arranged.
Referrals to us are normally via courts, solicitors or CAFCASS officers. We no longer take self referrals from the client families themselves.
