Type of support for people
- Information and advice
Children's Law Centre is continuing to offer legal advice and information on children's legal issues to children and young people, their parents and carers and professionals working with children during the Covid-19 health crisis.
In accordance with government advice, all Children's Law Centre staff are currently working at home so we have had to suspend our CHALKY Free phone advice line until further notice.
We are continuing to offer legal advice services Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm via email.
If you wish to access our legal advice and information service please contact us by email: info@childrenslawcentre.org
Your query will be dealt with by one of our experienced legal advisers who are continuing to provide advice and support via email while our offices are closed.
You may also contact individual Children's Law Centre staff via email. If you have not previously spoken to a member of our team, please initially contact Sarah McAuley on: reception@childrenslawcentre.org She will direct your query to the relevant staff.
If you have already been in contact with an individual member of staff, please contact them directly by email. A full list of our email contact details is available on our website: www.childrenslawcentre.org
