'More flexible' short breaks service rolled out 

Adults with learning disabilities in Oxfordshire have helped to redesign a service that will offer them more choice and flexibility around their short break options.


The adult learning disability short break programme has been coproduced with people who use the service and their families and carers. It will offer breaks in traditional settings and through more flexible community based solutions.



With the support of organisations including My Life My Choice and Oxfordshire Family Support Network, the adults’ short breaks service has been completely redesigned, helping to put people with learning disabilities in control of their support options.
