What we do
Brentwood Catholic Children's Society provides counselling for children and young adults up to the age of eighteen, regardless of their beliefs, together with their families, who could be experiencing emotional difficulties.
Violence in the family
Jayne aged 8 years was referred to the Society by her school. They were concerned because she was very withdrawn, easily startled and was always complaining of physical symptoms such as tummy aches.
Helping children through bereavement
If you know of a child or family that you think could use our services, then please do not hesitate to contact us.
Areas of work
Brentwood Catholic Children's Society provides counselling for children and young adults up to the age of eighteen, regardless of their beliefs, together with their families, who could be experiencing emotional difficulties.
Making a difference
Alongside Essex County Council we have been working with 11 schools, to help children who for various reasons present behaviour affecting their learning and those of their peers.
Staying out of trouble and keeping safe
Parents today face a new series of challenges in bringing up their children away from dangers of peer pressures and gang cultures.
Summer activities
School holidays can be isolating and boring for many children. Summer activities, play schemes and themed holidays allow some continuity of the structure provided by school.
What can BCCS do to help?
August has seen some of the worst rioting in London and other cities as far back as people can remember.
Building Friendships - a skill for life
Children's friendships are templates for the subsequent relationships they will form throughout school and the rest of their adult lives. Friends are vital to school age children's healthy develop - ment.
