PARCS Confidentiality

 

PARCS offers a confidential service, however, if your counsellor thinks that someone under 18 is at risk of serious harm or abuse, they may have to pass that information to other organisations

This is because we work to the Hampshire Wide Child Protection Procedures, most other organisations work to similar ethical procedures

Our address is confidential and before your first appointment you will be given the details of where we are located
