Respite

Are you aged 16-25 and would like to spend some time away from the family home? If you are looking for a break and an opportunity to meet new people, see friends and have a lot of fun then Respite is the right place for you.

Staff support adults to visit places they would like to see and try new experiences. Examples of places adults have enjoyed visiting are, going to the beach, social clubs, going to the pub, Longleat, swimming and many more.

Our bed space is limited so it’s good to make enquiries early so we can find out more about your needs and ambitions and you can decide if this is the right place for you.

What will Respite do for me?

You can have day breaks or overnight stays for as long as you need in our fully equipped, comfortable houses. You’ll have your own room and shared facilities and all the support you need to make your stay a happy one.

You’ll have the company of other people your own age, so the chance to make friends and have fun together. We offer days out to visitor attractions, Longleat and the beach are favourites! 

But it’s not just about what we have to offer, we spend time finding out what you want to achieve during your Respite. You might like the chance to learn to cook healthy meals and snacks. Although we provide transport, you might be keen for a train or bus ride.

Our highly trained and experienced staff do whatever it takes to make a success of your time away from home.
