Welcome to IRIS Brighton
We are a team of qualified and experienced independent social workers and related practitioners specialising in expert court assessment of families and children in difficulty. We have particular experience in assessing parental capability in relation to the individual child in matters of risk of harm, kinship care, special guardianship, contact and residence.
In addition we offer a range of contact services and contact assessments, with experienced contact supervisors.
We also work therapeutically with parents, children and families experiencing difficulty, to improve insight and ability and reduce risks.
We have a range of services and programmes designed to assist parents and families in achieving optimal outcomes for them, whatever the issue.
We aim to ensure that professionals and families have a positive experience of working with IRIS Brighton.
Our approach to working with families is collaborative, humane and integrated with established and emerging research to provide detailed, fair and constructive assessments and interventions.
