Calls for more consistent delivery of short breaks services
May 2009
The campaign group Every Disabled Child Matters has reported that that good practice on short breaks services for disabled children is emerging, but there is room for improvement to make the service accessible to all children.
The report follows four local authorities and shows that while some good models of practice are beginning to emerge from short breaks pathfinder areas, there is still a long way to go before a consistent, sustainable service is established that works for all disabled children, particularly those with the most complex needs.
