Hide AdThe centres could not function without the commitment care and skills of the volunteers.
The volunteers enable children to see a parent they no longer live with in a safe neutral child-friendly environment on a regular basis which otherwise would not happen.
This is so crucial for the emotional well–being of children.
The Annual Meeting will be at The House, Abbey Street at on Monday, April 12 at 12.30pm when Catherine Mullin, Independent Social Worker, will be the speaker.
