Cases where delivery of service crosses the English-Welsh border

England and Wales are part of the same jurisdiction for family courts, but Cafcass is separated between England (Cafcass England) and Wales (Cafcass Cymru). In most cases where a court in one country orders an activity or contact which is best delivered in the other country, this should be able to take place.

However, provision of DAPP in Wales is more complicated. Currently, Cafcass Cymru does not commission any DAPP programmes. However, Cafcass Cymru occasionally receive requests for the provision of a DAPP and there may be other times when it is necessary to explore provision in Wales.

  • If an English court makes a suitable activity order for a father living in Wales to attend a DAPP, the NCT will attempt to secure an accredited local service in Wales, but this cannot be guaranteed. This will be funded by Cafcass England. Please contact [email protected] for further information.
  • If a Welsh court makes a suitable activity order for a father living in England to attend a DAPP, Cafcass England will facilitate the referral to, and fund, a programme with a Provider from this Service Directory. Cafcass Cymru will contact the NCT in the first instance to discuss the case. The case will be managed in line with Cafcass practice with the case management being carried out by Cafcass Cymru.
