Description

Middlesbrough Council is seeking to secure a number of suitable organisations to provide services to meet the Assessed Needs of Children and Young People with Disabilities. The services will provide Short Breaks in the form of Outreach Support and/or Positive Activities in the community to enable families and carers to have a break from the caring role. The Service will ensure that the child is supported to become as independent as possible, and their families are supported in a way which enables them to maintain their caring role and responsibilities for their child, and to sustain an everyday family life, including spending time with siblings. Services must be available to enable all eligible children and young people and their families across Middlesbrough, to have equitable access to quality short breaks both in their own home and out in the local community.
