What are'short breaks'?

Short breaks are fun, leisure and social activities for children and young people with additional needs and disabilities. Short breaks  happen outside the school/college day ( after school, holidays, evenings and weekends) . A short break activity is all about new experiences, learning new skills, developing confidence and having fun!
