Policies Page
A 'Policies' page has been added to our website. This page will be updated and will contain our client policies, as well as leaflets, and confidentiality forms. These policies, forms, and leaflets will be for clients to download and view. We trust this will make the policies more accessible and transparent for all.
Face covering policy
After much thought and discussion, as well as taking into account feedback from staff, counsellors, and clients; Catalyst has implemented a new policy regarding the wearing of face coverings.
Safety Measures

Now adopted by police forces across the UK and overseas, 'Project Griffin' was developed by the City of London Police and introduced in Central London over a decade ago in partnership with the Metropolitan Police Force. It advises and trains organisations on security and counter-terrorism.
