Respite, advice and making a difference
Respite
Southside has a respite project, called Hartfield, which offers carers and parents respite by providing very short term accommodation for service users. Southside plans to develop its respite services to include short breaks, holiday respite and 'live in' respite.
Advice
We will soon be setting up an advice line/service to offer further support to parents and carers. This is part of our commitment to our customers.
Making a Difference
We are particularly keen to involve all our customer groups in consultation about how we can improve our services. If you'd like to help make a difference to services and the lives of people with mental health issues or learning disabilities, join our Parents and Carers Consultation Group (meeting several times a year). Please contact us at info@southsidepartnership.org.uk for more information.
