The Shared Care Scotland short breaks directory gives easy online access to short breaks information to carers, people with care-needs, and organisations that work to support them. In line with requirements of the Carers Act all Scottish local authorities are now publishing their Short Break Services Statements and many of these are signposting the Shared Care Scotland directory as a source of good quality information.
The directory holds information on short break and respite services covering all forms of service including, for example: home-based and residential based respite, family placements, befriending, holiday breaks and accessible guest houses and hotels.
