Welcome to the Central London Branch (CLB) page!

We are an affiliate branch of the UK's leading shared parenting charity, Families Need Fathers.

We provide help, advice and support for those that are dealing with children's matters before, during and after relationship breakdown. All are welcome - be they mothers, fathers or grandparents.

There is no cost for attending our meetings although we encourage everyone to buy a drink and spend some money at the bar and if possible make a small donation to FNF. We also request visitors to consider becoming members of FNF to help our organisation to keep going in especially difficult times for all.

Policy

All matters are discussed in complete confidence under the Chatham House Rule.

The format of the evening once introductions have been made is to first allow newcomers to explain their circumstances and invite opinions/advice from those present who can maybe apply their own experiences and opinions.

Newcomers are not obliged to speak and are welcome to observe – we like to provide a relaxed, pressure free forum for discussion.

We then throw open the floor for others to discuss their own ongoing situations be they asking for advice or announcing progress or good news.

In addition we are able to offer regular solicitor clinics – these are provided free of charge and are subject to a first come first served basis and held between 6pm-8pm prior to the start of the meeting. This service is provided by a London Family Law solicitor.
