Short Breaks also play a vital role in the Council's Early Help and Safeguarding strategies, helping to support parent and carer capacity.

Commissioned Short Breaks are available to Children and young people supported by the Children with Disabilities (CwD) Service. The number of young people receiving support is currently circa 480 Children and young people.

As of November 2023, the waiting list currently stands at 108 Service Users awaiting Services (62 holiday provision, 34 weekend provision, 3 overnight provision & 9 afterschool provision).

The proximity of these Services allows for easier accessibility for families, and a more immediate response to the needs of the local community. However, while our preference leans towards local Providers, we remain open to considering exceptional Services outside of this boundary that demonstrate the capacity to meet our standards and effectively serve the needs of our families.
