Better Breaks Funding Now Open
The Better Breaks programme from Shared Care Scotland provides 12 month grants to third sector organisations to develop and deliver short breaks projects and services for disabled children and young people (aged 20 and under), and their carers (adult carers and/or young carers).
The programme funds a wide range of short breaks projects and activities including breaks away (i.e., overnight stays, residential breaks), days out, and/or shorter regular activities and sessions. Breaks should increase opportunities for disabled children and young people to engage in activities they enjoy, give carers a break from their caring role, and improve wellbeing for all involved.
Applications close at 5pm on 17 November 2022.
Shared Care Scotland are running information sessions for potential applicants. To register to attend, please visit the Shared Care Scotland website.
