CASSS first started in 2013 with several agencies meeting together, to network and share ideas and information. We now have therapy agencies and Colleges/Training Providers meeting together on a regular basis, to help support the development of therapy services. CASSS itself is a registered charity run by several trustees, who have knowledge and experience in the counselling and therapy sector.

​

At present we have agency networking meeting every two months, to share information and network. CASSS also publishes a monthly newsletter, giving regular updates on the sector locally and nationally. It organises CPD and mental health events, for the public to meet with agencies and discuss issues. Further activities are planned, to help develop the sector further and improve support provided to the community.
