Short breaks and respite care
Giving children and young people with additional needs or a disability the opportunity to take part; short breaks are ideal. From trying new things to making new friends, they're a great way for children to have fun and do something different.
They're also a wonderful opportunity for parents and carers to take a break, and enjoy their children doing what they are meant to do; without so much of the worry. Allowing every child to have a full part in community life.
Our Short Breaks Statement sets out the leisure activities and short breaks offered by Solihull Council to children and young people with a disability. It tells you about the range of services available, how to access them and how we consult with parents/carers and children and young people.
Some overnight breaks are taken at Lyndon House. You can read the most recent Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspection report for Lyndon House.
