UK Catholic Agencies

All of the Catholic care agencies in the UK are autonomous and applicants would need to approach the agency where they grew up to access records.

 

Caritas Social Action Network is the umbrella organisation for such agencies, some of whom are due to change their names in the next year.  Caritas can be contacted on 020 7901 4875 to get up to date contact details of any individual Catholic care agency.
