What are Respite Services?

Community Living London offers three different respite services: Weekend relief, Extended relief and Adult Services. All three services give caregivers an opportunity to have their family members supported outside of their home by qualified, trained support staff.

Weekend Relief provides care Friday to Sunday for a child under 18 years old with an intellectual disability who lives with a caregiver. Caregivers are welcome to use this service a few weekends out of the year.
waiting on picture Extended Relief is for persons of any age with an intellectual disability who live with a parent or guardian. Care is provided in a home-like setting for one week or more.

Where are Respite Services provided?

What are the benefits of Respite Services?

Respite Services offer a wonderful opportunity for children and adults to broaden their social circle and experience inclusive community activites.
Parents and caregivers benefit by taking time for themselves or spending time with other family members. Respite Services can provide the break you need to take a vacation, or to cover for times of emergency or crisis.
