Show me...: Families

Scheduled throughout the year to coincide (usually) with school holidays, our Family courses bring individual families together in maximum group sizes of 12, where one family member is under 18 and one has a disability. This may be an adult with a disability coming with their partner and children, or a child with a disability coming with adult family members and siblings. Our Family courses are also suitable for under 18 year old service users who may be in care and coming with support workers.

These breaks are a wonderful way to promote and encourage the social aspect of your stay for both adults and children.
