About
Warwickshire County Council awarded a contract to Action for Children Services, Midland Mencap, and Take-a-Break Warwickshire Ltd for the provision of short breaks for children and young people with disabilities.
The service, a statutory requirement, is designed to assist children with disabilities and their families through a preventative model that keeps families together, prevents family breakdown, and reduces the number of children becoming looked after.
The contract covers two main services: community short breaks (daytime, afterschool, weekends, school holidays, and overnight) across three lots (North Warwickshire, South Warwickshire, and Rugby), and residential overnight short breaks in regulated settings, enhanced by community-based outreach support.
The total contract value is AUD 2,300,000.
