Our Crossroads Respite Scheme is here to provide practical help to Carers in the form of a short respite break.

Our Support Workers can go into your home to look after the person you care for while you have some time off to go to appointments, shopping or to a leisure activity. We can take the cared for person out of the home for a run in the car, a walk, go to a cafe or any other activity they request. Although our service is free of charge there is a small charge of 45p per mile if we go out in the car.

We can give up to four hours of free respite per week depending on the Carers circumstances and our criteria for respite care.

Our Support Workers are trained and disclosure checked.
