What is Respite?
In plain English
A break for carers and participants, where support is arranged so the usual carer can rest. It is often delivered as Short Term Accommodation.
Respite is a planned break, giving both the participant and their usual carer time to rest and recharge. It is often delivered as Short Term Accommodation, where the participant stays somewhere with support for a short period. Respite helps keep caring relationships healthy and sustainable over the long term. It is worth planning for, not just reaching for in a crisis.
