Welcome to Chesterfield Child Contact Centre
First opening its doors in 1993, for more than twenty five years the Centre on Rose Hill has provided a safe, friendly, neutral environment for hundreds of children from separated families to spend some quality time with their non-resident parent (and sometimes other family members).
Its child-centred environment provides toys, games and facilities that reflect the diverse needs of children affected by family breakdown.
Chesterfield Child Contact Centre was the 21st Contact Centre to be set up in England and Wales. During that time the Centre has played host to hundreds of families, helping to rebuild vital relationships between parents and children.
Families generally use the Child Contact Centre for between three and six months, until relationships have improved, confidence levels have risen and anxiety levels fall. As we often have a waiting list, we do try to move the contact on, however all cases are considered on an individual basis.
All volunteers are checked by the Disclosure and Barring Services prior to starting work at the Centre. We are normally open every Saturday from midday until 4pm.
Contact Centres may provide differing levels of support during contact. We offer ‘supported’ contact only, not ‘supervised’. This means that our volunteers are available for assistance but there is no close observation, monitoring or evaluation of individual contacts.
