A **NNUAL REPORT 2020-2021** 

**Pontypridd Children’s Contact Centre Ltd** _**Supporting family contact throughout RCT**_ 

**1** 



## Delivering services throughout the pandemic. 

Pontypridd Children’s Contact Centre staff and management committee members were proud to be able to continue to deliver services to children and their absent family members throughout the year. A demand was met for on-line indirect contact during this time, and staff were delighted to be able to accommodate all families requiring this essential- services, at a very uncertain time for everyone. 

_**“thank you so much to the staff at the Centre who were able to ensure that I could still stay in touch with my children during the pandemic” Anon**_

During the year the Centre was able to re-locate to larger premises, and in December 2020, welcomed its first visitors to the new venue situated in Maesycoed, Pontypridd. 

The spacious Centre offers free on-site parking and is a short walk from the local train station. The Centre has been able to extend its opening days and times, and now offers both supervised and supported contact throughout the week and on weekends. 

Special thanks must go to the contact supervisory staff who were able to deliver direct supervised contact for children and their families throughout the Christmas period of 2020, at a time of national lockdown for Wales. 

Adapting our service to meet the needs of the local community meant that we were able to offer in-direct contact in the form of zoom, teams, and letter box. This way of working was a huge support for families at a very uncertain time. 

## **Funding and special thanks to:** 

**RCT Interlink Covid support funding. Amazing job of keeping local charities informed of funds available and to offer help and support wherever possible- donations of PPE supplies, to boxes of drawing paper for the children. Thank you!** 

**Moondance Foundation for their generosity and kindness in offering substantial financial support to allow staff to coordinate and deliver in-direct services throughout the year. The boost to the charity was invaluable at a vital time during the start of lockdown.**

**The Gibbs Family have supported the charity for many years. The Gibbs family are always keen to note what a valuable service the Centre provides for local children and their family members.**
