The local authority must offer short breaks as part of a preventative model in keeping families together, stopping family breakdown and preventing children and young people with disabilities becoming children looked after. The service is required for children and young people with a disability eligible for social care support where the assessment of need has identified an individual and their family/carer would benefit from access to short break services.
