Short Breaks core offer

Families may be signposted to the Local Offer and other available services including those provided by the voluntary sector.

These are services where the Local Authority have given the service extra money to enable children and young people access without the need for an assessment.

These services may ask to see proof of your child/young person's disability (DLA letter, paediatricians report or similar) and may ask what other services you are accessing to ensure that everyone gets a fair opportunity to access short breaks.

These services may be at Specialist Centres or in main stream provision

Please also see the attachments on this page for our upcoming core offer events at Tresham centre and other provision.

Please refer to our short breaks menu for our current core offer activities
