How can relatives avoid approaching the same family twice with the same proposal?
Last reviewed:
Direct answer
Keep a small, authorised contact log showing which family was approached, by whom and the current agreed status.
Use enough information to identify a duplicate without copying private conversations or unnecessary personal documents. Check the log before a new introduction and nominate one person to clarify conflicting updates. Tell the represented person how the record is used. The aim is to avoid repeated or unwanted approaches, not build a family surveillance file or assume the log proves a proposal is still welcome.
