How to get a short break
Refer yourself (self-referral) for short breaks
If you think you are eligible for short breaks, download and fill in the self-referral form.

What happens next
After we receive your form, we will:
- create a record for your child on our system, if one does not already exist
- pass your form to the Short Breaks and Early Help Team
- contact you within 5 working days of receiving your form
