Christmas holiday update
🎄Check our Christmas page, calendar and SEND Christmas activities. Merry Christmas!🎄
In Newcastle we want to work together with families to improve outcomes for our children and young people. We want our Short Breaks offer to support improved outcomes, strengthen resilience and to provide a high standard of care to our most vulnerable young people.
We want to ensure that all our short breaks give young people the opportunity to take part in meaningful activities and make new friends. Feedback from our children and young people tells us what is most important to them.
‘We want to do more things in our own communities.'
'I want to do things where I live so I can make friends and have a good life’.
‘Our needs are not understood and there is often not the right staff ratio or staff who have had enough training to support us’.
‘Having quiet and calm spaces that helps my neuro diversity’.
‘I need to be able to relax and feel calm when I need it.’
