What Do You Think About Wiltshire’s Short Breaks Scheme?
Wiltshire Parent Carer Council (WPCC) are inviting Wiltshire parent Carers of children/ young people aged 0-25 years with special educational needs and/ or disabilities to share their views on Wiltshire’s Short Breaks Scheme.
Wiltshire’s current Short Breaks Scheme is commissioned until 2026. To begin to inform future decisions about the scheme, WPCC and Wiltshire Council want to have conversations with as many parent Carers as possible about this scheme. Your child/ young person does not need to have accessed the scheme in the past or be currently eligible for the scheme for you to join in these conversations.
This is an important opportunity to help shape what a future short breaks scheme might look like in Wiltshire and we are encouraging as many parent Carers as possible to participate and share their views about social and leisure opportunities for their children/ young people. Young people are invited to join sessions alongside their parent Carers if they would like to.
Free tea, coffee and cake will be provided and parent Carers will be able to claim out of pocket mileage, car parking and childcare expenses incurred by attending sessions. Everyone who attends a session will be entered into a draw with the chance to win one of three £50 vouchers!
Sessions take place in September through to early October and will be held in Calne, Salisbury, Devizes and online.
