CiNCH, Children in Need of Counselling Help, is a scheme run jointly by Gloucestershire Mediation Services with Relate Gloucestershire. The aim is to support children and young people who are experiencing the distress of family separation. This low-level, short term counselling course for children and young people will help them to make sense of the changes in their family and the feelings they are experiencing. For under sixteens, the consent of the adult that the child lives with is needed before the child can be seen.
Appointments are available mostly on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons, although other times can occasionally be arranged. There are currently no evening or weekend appointments. There is a twenty four hour ansaphone and e-mail facility, and there are local centres in Coleford, Moreton-in-Marsh and Cheltenham.
