Short Breaks from Caring

Getting a break from caring is very important for many carers. We provide advice and assistance to find a break that will work for both the carer and the person they care for. This could be just getting a bit of time for yourself in the day through to help with booking appropriate respite breaks for a week or two.

We can help ensure that the Council provides funding for a break and sometimes also identify other sources of funds to make breaks affordable. We also run occasional days out for carers.
