 The Association of Christian Counsellors (ACC) is a registered charity and the leading agency representing the voice of Christian counsellors and pastoral carers in the UK. Founded in 1992, it today represents around 2,000 members and 150 affiliate organisations. ACC South East and London has 753 members and 55 affiliates.

ACC aims to be a catalyst for excellence through its standardisation of good practice; accreditation; the recognition of training; its journal, Accord and its conferences and training events.

Each year ACC organises a busy schedule of both regional and national training events and conferences, covering a wide range of issues and topics relevant to its counselling and pastoral care members and to the everyday stresses of modern life.

“ACC South East and London is here to support and equip Christian counsellors and pastoral carers in our area”, says Syd Platt, ACC South East and London representative. “We usually hold a regional conference and training day each year, unless it clashes with a national event. This includes training session(s), fellowship and a time to get to know other members in your locality through area group get-togethers. Areas also run several events throughout the year, some in the week and some at the weekend.

“The region, being so large, is split up into areas each being run by a committee, which is chaired by an area co-ordinator. To help you identify the area co-ordinator nearest to you below are details of the regional committee, which includes their names and contact details.

“Please do not hesitate to contact your regional rep or your area coordinator either by telephone or e-mail if you have any questions or indeed just to say hello. They will be very pleased to hear from you”.
