If you are unsure which service fits your circumstances, we are happy to talk it through with you.
Supported Contact
Contact sessions where a worker is present on-site to offer reassurance and assistance, without active monitoring or intervention in the session itself.
Supervised Contact
Fully supervised sessions where a trained worker observes and documents all contact between a child and a parent, used where safeguarding considerations require closer oversight.
Public Law Supervised Contact
Supervised contact delivered within care proceedings, meeting the requirements of local authorities and the court for rigorous, evidenced observation and reporting.
Letterbox Service
A managed indirect contact service enabling the exchange of letters, cards, or photographs between a child and a non-resident parent or family member, with all correspondence reviewed before forwarding.
What we offer
Chances Gives Choices is a specialist child contact service and has focused exclusively on contact for over 12 years. We hold NACCC enhanced accreditation and work with local authorities and professional referrers across southern England.
Unlike providers with waiting lists of six to nine months, we have no waiting list. Where both parties engage, we can have a service in place within seven days. Our work is centred on making arrangements that maintain a child's relationship with their parent, whatever your family now looks like.
