Hi,

My children (unfortunately) still want to see their dad, he's been placed on sor for 10years so of course access is supervised.

Currently around once a month, it seems that the people supervising the visits are stretched hence only once a month. But theres no set days, we are finding out last minute when these people are available, theres no set routine and contact is extremely poor between them and myself.



Does anyone have any experience with this? Im in Scotland
