Access to grandchildren: Does the law need to change?
When families separate, grandparents can find themselves unable to see their grandchildren.
Grandparents can be required to go to court twice to ask permission just to see their own grandchildren, reveals a report recently launched by charities Families Need Fathers, The Grandparents' Association and the Family Matters Institute.
The charities are attempting to promote the importance of grandparents and wider families, to highlight the problems they face after parents separate or divorce. They're calling upon the Government to give more legal rights to grandparents.
