RESIDENTIAL SHORT BREAKS FOR ADULTS WITH LEARNING DISABILITIES AND/OR AUTISM CARLISLE

Cumberland Council have commissioned a provider to provide Residential Short Breaks for Adults with Learning Disabilities and/or Autism.

Residential Short Breaks complement the range of services currently available to adults with a learning disability and / or who are autistic and forms part of the range of options available to meet people's assessed needs.

Short breaks can have a significant positive impact on someone's independence and choice by enabling them to continue living in their own home by providing support they can access when their regular care giver needs to take a break from their caring responsibilities.
