Norfolk County Council awarded a framework contract to multiple suppliers, including About With Friends, Break Charity, Carers Trust Cambridgeshire, Churchill Park School, Leading Lives, Mid Suffolk HOPS, Musical Keys, Norfolk & Norwich Scope Association, and Norfolk Community Health and Care NHS, for the provision of short breaks for children with disabilities.

The short breaks allow children to spend time apart from their parents or carers, participate in activities they enjoy, form friendships, and develop confidence and independence, while giving families a break from caring responsibilities to relax and spend time with other children, reducing family stress.

The Council's potential spend under the framework is up to £1.7 million per annum, but there is no guarantee of business and orders are awarded on an individual basis.
