This chapter provides aspects of family centres in England and France. British Family Centres of a certain kind appear to have an equivalent in the French Centre Socio-Culturel. The French national organisation, the Federation de Centres Sociaux, is closely allied to the British Association of Settlements and Social Action Centres, rather than the Family Centre Network, to which many English and Welsh family centres have at least a mailing link. User national and international exchange as an empowerment measure is reported in Bourget-Daitch and Warren about French local practice—and is also evident in accounts by Togher Family Centre users in Ireland. English family centres operate within a local authority social services department constituency. The Family Centre tradition in Britain, emerging in the late nineteen seventies, was a response to a changing welfare state and specifically the impact of change upon voluntary child care organisations which had invested in institutional care, for example, residential nurseries and homes.
