Welcome.


Hi everyone and welcome to Bristol Grandparents Support Group blog. Although we are Bristol based we have grandparents from all over the UK and beyond as members.

It is estimated that over one million children in the UK are denied contact with their grandparents due to family breakdown which may have been caused by divorce/separation, alcohol/drug dependency,domestic violence,bereavement or family feud.
Every child has the right to have contact with their grandparents
if they wish and unless proven unsafe for them to do so. To deny contact from a parent or grandparent has to become as socially unacceptable as drink driving.
I hope to keep you up to date with what is going on in BGSG and I shall continue to campaign for the rights of children to have a loving and meaningful relationship with both parents and their extended family. So please join in as good to hear your views, not just mine!
I also will support via Skype.
There is no membership fee to be part of Bristol Grandparents Support Group.
Esther Rantzen says, " To every grandparent, links of love can never be broken in our hearts."

Please contact during office hours.

A Grandfather Reunited With His Granddaughter.

I had a call last night from a grandfather from our group to say, never give up hope, he is now seeing his granddaughter every Saturday.
It is great to hear that another grandchild is having the love and care from her grandparents and indeed her Dad who is also now also seeing her.
Tomorrow is the day for the interim report from the Family Justice Review, I hope and pray that ministers have been listening to all groups fighting for the rights of the children.
