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.

Return your completed form to our duty triage team by emailing triage@wokingham.gov.uk or by post to:

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
