Connect Care is one of a range of short-break services available to families caring for a disabled child in the Wakefield District.

It links children to a carer who is able to provide them with an enjoyable break in a safe, family-based environment. These breaks can last anything from a few hours to a few days. Connect Carers offer vital support to full-time carers and the breaks provide children with new experiences, and allow families to take a well-earned rest from their responsibilities.
