The Child Contact Centre service is provided by children's charity Barnardos and the organisation for one parent families, One Family.

The centre's aim to provide a safe, neutral and friendly space where children can spend time with the parent or parents they don't live with.

The scheme is only in a pilot phase at present, and director of One Family, Karen Kiernan, has said they hope to expand it nationwide.
