The total value is approximately £14,760,000, if all extensions used. <br/>Short Breaks and respite are part of the continuum of services that support children, young people and their families aged 0-18 years. Short Breaks enable children and young people with disabilities to develop their independence, prepare for adulthood, learn life skills, form meaningful relationships, and socialise with their peers, whilst providing a safe and secure environment for the overnight or daytime stay. Parents and carers can rest, unwind and spend some quality time with other members of the family, whilst having respite from their caring responsibilities. <br/>The Council has a statutory responsibility to provide a range of quality Short Break Services, which can meet the needs of local families, as part of the Local Offer.

The proximity of these Services allows for easier accessibility for families, and a more immediate response to the needs of the local community.
