Hey there,

One of the biggest complaints about going through a separation or divorce is lack of information on what to do and who can help, so we are compiling a list of useful contacts to sticky at the top of the forum.

If there is an organisation or office specific to separation and divorce you think should be included then please post name, contact details and function of contact here or PM myself or Taltos in confidence.

Thanks for your help

I'll send you on a couple of links I have found useful Ickle.

As you said, a lot of people don't know where to go or what to do when a separation is on the cards, and I include myself in that. I'll also send you on some some links for supports for separating couples with children, as they often dont get the help they need.

Delighted to see this forum up and running, though sorry for the extra responsibility though Ickle and Taltos

I have split these out into a dedicated thread - just to make it easier for folk to find the links.
As well as the links above I had added in some from other forums.

Thanks everyone for your help so far.
