Time out or a short break

We know that caring for someone else can sometimes be hard. Sometimes just having a short break from your day to day responsibilities can be all that is needed to help you continue to care for your relative, neighbour or friend.

A short break for you

A short break, anything from a few hours to a few weeks, can provide a break from the pressures of caring.

Holidays

If you are looking for a holiday, there are a number of organisations that can help you to make the right holiday choices.

Short stay away from home for the person you care for

A short break away from home in a residential setting or in a family home, sometimes called respite care, can often provide a welcome and much needed break.
