| Services Offered: | Taking the family on a trip out when you have a Disabled child isn't always easy, and even simple daily tasks like the weekly food shopping can become difficult. But we’re here to help!
The KIDS Direct Short Breaks Service is a flexible service designed to help you care for a Disabled child or young person aged up to 25 (up to 19th birthday for Aiming High/Buzz Network services) by providing exactly what it says: a short break, which can last from 1 hour to a full day. While you to catch up with the shopping, or put your feet up with a cup of tea, a trained Short Break Worker will help your child to participate in exciting activities, learn new skills, or just keep them company for a walk in the park. Our Workers can even come along on family days out to lend an extra set of hands and help to ensure your whole family has an enjoyable time. |
