Short Breaks for Children and Young People with Disabilities

Short breaks give children and young people with disabilities, and their families, a chance to take a break from their usual routine.

These breaks offer new experiences for children and young people, while giving parents and carers time to rest and recharge.

Types of Short Breaks Available

There are lots of different short break services, play schemes, and youth activities available in Croydon for children and young people with disabilities.

  • Some services you can access directly without any formal process.
  • Other services need an assessment and referral from the 0-25 Children with Disabilities Social Care Service.
