Short Breaks / Respite for Adults

Short break care offering adults with a disability a change from their routine and giving their family or carers a break from their caring role.

Service Finder

Our short breaks give adults with a disability the opportunity to enjoy a break from their routine and have new experiences. They also give families or carers time to themselves, and they can relax knowing that the person they care for is being well looked after. Breaks are vital in helping carers to keep on caring.

We work with carers and people we support to explore what they need from a break, whether it’s the person we support enjoying a residential stay or spending a night at the theatre while their carer attends an evening class, goes to the gym or spends time with friends. We deliver a range of flexible break options that give carers and people we support time to enjoy themselves and recharge.
