Support for each other.

Thanks to all who came to meeting this afternoon, it was good to welcome new grandparents.

A big thank you to all the support you give one another.

As I explained today, grandparents have no automatic legal right to have contact with their grandchildren, even though some media did give the impression earlier this year, that you do, but you can go to court to obtain a contact order, if you wish.

You need to apply to the court for 'leave' to apply for a contact order.

The court route could well be very expensive and with no guarantees.

We must all do what we feel is the right thing in our own circumstances.

Bristol Grandparents Support Group will always support our members in any decision they make.

Jane.
