Kentish Road Short Break Service

  • People with learning disabilities, autism and neurodiversity feel valued
  • Able to reach their goals and ambitions through access to positive opportunities
  • Their voice and the voice of their carers is heard
  • They are not disadvantaged by inequalities associated with their learning disability or where they live

We are the Southampton City Council’s in-house respite service. We support those adult members of society who have a level of learning difficulty, with accommodation for up to five people.

Short breaks are designed for people with high care needs and their families and carers. It provides them with a break from their daily routine and gives families and carers a break from the demands of their role.

Caring for someone you love can be an exhausting experience, leaving little time for yourself and other members of your family. Our support is tailored around individual needs by providing bespoke packages.
