Respite

Respite allows carers a break from looking after someone for a short amount of time. Carers can take a break when they need it knowing that the person they look after is safe.

More information about the respite service can be found on the Wakefield council website.

Carefree also provides break for unpaid carers. They offer accommodation for up to two nights. You can read more about them on their website.

You can refer yourself through the Carefree website, or by contacting Carers Wakefield.
