Short Breaks for Children and Young People

Tender description

Short breaks are part of a continuum of services which support children in need and their families. They include the provision of day, evening, overnight and weekend activities for the child or young person, and can take place in the child's own home, the home of an approved carer, or in a residential or community setting. The breaks usually have two aims: to enable the child to participate in fun, interesting and safe activities; and to provide a break from caring for the parent / carer. Blackpool Council is seeking suitable providers across a number of lots to deliver a range of short break provision.
