Payment Support
In the West Midlands we are part funded by Birmingham City Council which allows us to run our groups at a subsidised rate. Community Support is a self-funded service.
Please contact us for more details.
For families living outside of Birmingham or Walsall, please contact your Local Authority Short Breaks provider who may be able to provide or direct you to a list of local services that may be accessible for your child.
Please contact us for more details.
If you are interested in your child accessing a Short Breaks service with us during the holidays or term time, you may wish for your child to be known to Walsall Short Breaks service if you have not done so already. Ensuring your child is known to Walsall Short Breaks can result in an assessment of your child’s needs and a potential funded placement on our holiday or term time clubs. This does depend on their assessment but it is absolutely worth trying if you are interested.
If you wish for your child to be known to Walsall Short Breaks team, please contact the Early Help team who will guide you through the process:
