Short Breaks in Coventry

Coventry City Council's Short Breaks service is made up of three types of Short Break.

These are:

  1. Community Short Breaks
  2. Targeted Short Breaks
  3. Specialist Short Breaks (Overnight)

We also operate a Direct Payment Scheme for Short Breaks.

The Short Breaks service is coordinated by the Children's Disability Team (CDT).

For more information about eligibility and how to access the service, see the Short Breaks website.

Feedback

We’re in the process of developing our Short Breaks offer to make sure it delivers an effective service for Coventry’s residents.

This page is a place to find out information about that process. You will also find contact information on the right of this page to share any ideas or feedback you have. There is also an ‘ideas’ section below where you can post your ideas as well as liking and commenting on ideas submitted by others.


Community Short Breaks Development

We're in the process of developing our Community Short Breaks offer to make sure it delivers an effective service for Coventry's residents. We have held a number of engagement sessions with parents, guardians and carers to begin to co-develop what an improved service might look like. A summary of those engagement sessions can be found in the document library on the right-hand side of this page.

Communication with parents, guardians and carers will continue throughout the development process. You can also see the progress of this development on the right-hand side of this page.

Overall, the purpose of the Community Short Breaks Service remains the same:

to provide opportunities to children and young people with disabilities to relax, develop new friendships, take part in exciting experiences and have fun doing activities.


Targeted Short Breaks Development

We are also looking at developing our Targeted Offer. Information about this will appear on this page in due course.
