Vale of Glamorgan: Short Breaks Wales for unpaid carers


Funded short breaks for unpaid carers in Wales

Funded by Welsh Government, the Short Breaks Scheme is a new initiative to support unpaid carers of all ages in Wales to take a break from their caring role.

A short break is more than just a yoga class or an overnight stay in a hotel, it is a chance for carers to de-stress and recharge. It offers a break from the daily challenges of caring for a family member or friend.

Find a funded short break in Vale of Glamorgan at: https://www.shortbreaksscheme.wales
