Accreditation Summary
Date: 17/05/2025
Summary:
This is a newly established organisation with no prior record of delivering child contact services. Having said this the co-ordinator has been running NACCC accredited contact services for another company, for more than 10 years. The centre is based in St Elizabeth’s Church, a modern church building in North Earlham, Norwich. The centre has links to public transport and ample off-street parking.
The premises, including furniture and resources, are well maintained. There is a suitable range of furniture, toys, and games, which are further enhanced by items brought by parents during contact sessions. Additionally, as the building functions as a family hub, the wall displays and informational leaflets are likely to be relevant and beneficial to those accessing the contact service.
The centre has a detailed, bright, and inviting website and leaflets with a range of information included on these for the children and families that may use the centre. This information helps them to anticipate everything from making a referral to the appropriate steps to take if they are unhappy or feel unsafe.
The centre has a highly qualified and professional staff team. Any recommended actions following the visit are now complete meaning the service meets the standards for enhanced (supervised) family time accreditation.
