THE WORCESTER CONTACT CENTRE 

The Contact Centre organises sessions where the children of separated families can meet with one, and sometimes both, parents in a safe, neutral and friendly environment
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
