Domiciliary Short Break Services

The Norman Laud Community Short Break Service provides a family support service offering quality care for children and young people with special needs in the Birmingham and West Midlands areas.
This service aims to help and support parents and carers in their own homes to enable the families to recharge their batteries, spend time with other family members and enjoy a social life.

Domiciliary Short Stay Services

The Service is available daytime, evenings, weekends, nights, and bank holidays - excluding Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day

  • The service is usually agreed in advance but it may also be possible to book a ‘same day’ service
  • There is a duty manager on call at all times and during office hours the service manager is available.
  • The service provided is based on a ‘needs led’ approach and is tailored to meet the individual’s needs
  • Great emphasis is placed on providing a service that promotes each child’s spiritual, moral, social and cultural development
  • The service aims to provide continuity of care whenever possible, placing staff with families they have supported on previous occasions
