Caring Breaks

Providing short respite breaks for the family carers of adults with a learning disability This page will help raise awareness about the work of Caring Breaks.

We will keep everyone up to date by sharing news, information and photos of our events and activities. Caring Breaks is a Northern Ireland charity for family carers. It was formed in 1999 by parents and carers themselves, to address the shortage in respite provision for those caring for adults with a learning disability. It is a partnership between carers, people from the business community and th

e statutory sector. The service has grown and developed over the years and is now a well established, reputable organisation in the field of respite care in NI. We are known for putting family carers and their loved ones - adults with a learning disability, at the heart of everything we do. We are acknowledged by the families we support as a provider of high quality, flexible and reliable short breaks. Family carers also tell us that our service is a lifeline as it enables them to continue to care for their loved ones at home.
