Family in centre of Brussels hides (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

skins

'hides' is the definition.
('skin' can be a synonym of 'hide')

'family in centre of brussels' is the wordplay.
'family' becomes 'kin' (synonyms).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'centre of' means to look at the middle letters.
The centre of 'brussels' is 'ss'.
'kin' going within 'ss' is 'SKINS'.

(Another definition for skins that I've seen is " Pelts".)
