Short Term Respite is planned, short term support that gives participants a shift in routine while still feeling safe and understood.
Funding is usually drawn from Core Supports, and can include support workers, short term accommodation, and meals. But funding is only one piece.
The real difference is in the approach!
💙At Zest, we see respite as an opportunity to strengthen skills, build independence, and support regulation in real life environments💙
🔹We tailor each stay to the individual.
🔹We prioritise emotional safety.
🔹We support carers alongside participants.
Because strong support works best when everyone is supported✨
