Bury St Edmunds Child Contact Centre
Testimonials
“I just wanted to say thanks for your support in arranging contact between (my child) and myself on Saturday. That was the first time I had seen ( my child) in months, and it meant a huge amount to me to be able to see and make sure ( my child) is ok. I know there’s still a long way to go with my situation, but seeing ( my child) even briefly has been a massive relief – thank you”
“Thank you and your staff for all the help and support provided”
“While the legal process takes place to hopefully resolve this, this centre has allowed me to see my (child), spend a small amount of time with (my child) which makes a huge difference to my life. Before access to the centre, I had not seen my (child) for several months, while before that I had seen and cared for (my child) every day. It’s just such a relief to see (my child), even briefly. I will be forever grateful to the staff and volunteers at the centre”
“Volunteers are lovely, friendly and non-judgemental of peoples’ situations. My children have thoroughly enjoyed themselves”
“I spent this afternoon at the Child Contact Centre with Allison Field, the Coordinator, and the wonderful volunteers. I know I say this often, but it was inspirational to witness the healing of family relationships the Centre fosters”
“I can see that you are genuinely doing this to help people”
“I have just had confirmation that contact is going ahead tomorrow. Thank you for all your efforts, I am so excited”
“It has been amazing. The volunteers are very helpful and accommodate as much as possible”
“Just a quick note to say a very big thank you for all your help these past few months. Me and (contact parent) have spoken this afternoon after contact and agreed to meet outside the centre with the children from now on. Many thanks again”
“The Centre has been really helpful and supportive. It has given me peace of mind knowing that my children can spend time with their father without us parents having to meet. Just want to say thank you to everyone who runs this place and to all volunteers”
“Thank you for all your hard work. You and your volunteers do an amazing job and I couldn’t have got where we have without you”
“Staggered arrival and departure times have ensured I am not exposed to my partner and feel safe and supported. Thank you!”
“Contact (in the community) went really well at the weekend so hopefully this will be the start of better times. Just wanted to say thanks for all that you have done for us”
“I hadn’t realised the need for centres like this until I was in this situation myself, and now that I am, its been a real lifeline. Allison and the volunteers have been extremely welcoming, and I can’t praise the centre highly enough for the service it provides to families in need”
