Supporting Children & Families.
At Centre For Families (C4F), we understand that families may sometimes find it hard to stay connected for various reasons. No matter what those reasons are, we're here to lend a hand. Relationships can be tough and breakups can make it challenging for everyone involved to agree on when and how children should meet their other parent. But don't worry, we're here to help make this process smoother.
We've created a safe, warm environment where kids and young people can meet the parent or other family members they aren't living with or aren't able to see regularly. Remember, being a parent is forever, even if relationships change. With more than a million kids not in contact with one parent post-separation, we understand the struggles they face - from anxiety and sadness to health problems.
This is why C4F is committed to helping families maintain their ties. Our goal is to ensure that every child can keep their bond with both parents strong, no matter the circumstances. We're here for you, supporting families to stay connected, always.

“Well where do I start with this fantastic centre and staff. From Day 1 when I contacted C4F they have been so helpful, kind and informative. Sam, Leanne and the Team are incredible at what they do and make you feel so welcome and interact with parents and children. They also make the children feel that the centre is a safe place to be with non-resident parent and a fun place to be. Lots of activities for parents and children from toys to board games and they have a garden for when the weather is good. Anyone thinking they should not contact a centre for any reason should not hesitate to contact C4F. I highly recommend them.”

There is so much to do, there are great toys to play with inside and outside. The playroom is bright and inviting and there is a wide variety of toys for children of all ages.
Sam and her staff provide a very happy place for parents that are having difficulties to spend time with their children.”
