Short breaks for carers
Caring for someone can be incredibly rewarding, but it’s also exhausting. At PKAVS, we believe every carer deserves time to rest, reset and enjoy something just for themselves. e offer a range of short break options to help you step away from your caring role and recharge, even if just for a little while.
Types of short breaks we offer
Time to Live (T2L)
Choose your own break with a small grant that gives you flexibility. Whether it’s a day out, a pamper experience or something relaxing at home, you decide what helps.
It gave me a life outside my caring role, even just for a short time
Wee Treats & Complementary Therapy Vouchers
Enjoy little moments of calm and care, such as massage, reiki or reflexology, with no cost to you. A small gesture, a big impact.
I loved every minute of my pamper day. I felt truly spoiled
Respitality
Local businesses and organisations donate short breaks, including hotel stays, meals out, or event tickets, for carers to enjoy completely free of charge.
It was lovely to be treated to a quality meal in a nice restaurant
