Show me...: Buddy Breaks

What are they?

Our Buddy Breaks are for those who are independent in the majority of their day-to-day lives. They may need some support in an unfamiliar environment with new tasks and a new routine. Our ‘Buddies’ – volunteers with the Calvert Trust who have a care, teaching, clinical, or similar background – are  there to support people with reminders and prompts and provide help assisting them to integrate socially with other members of the group if appropriate.

What’s included?

Well – everything you’d expect:

• 3 nights accommodation in our on-site, spick and span ensuite rooms (by the way – we don’t do online booking as we like to find out exactly what you need from your room first!)
• Breakfast, lunch and dinner plus snacks
• If you need a buddy there is a small additional cost of £40
• A brilliant array of accessible outdoor activity – tailored to you and the time of year.
• And everything else – all those things you didn’t expect but that really matter: meeting and making friends with like-minded people; a break away from the daily grind; doing things you may never have thought possible; quite simply – making memories.
