Recipient Org: Description The Chiltern Centre for Disabled Children supports around 18 families across South Oxfordshire. All the children and young people have learning disabilities with associated communication and behavioural difficulties. We have provided a unique range of short break respite care for disabled children and young people for over 13 years, providing the chance for children and young people to get the most out of life, whilst offering practical and emotional support to their parents and families. Aims: 1. To enable young people to: - Build confidence and support the development of independence and life skills – from eating and basic communication to more complicated issues such as emotions and relationships. - Socialise and enjoy themselves with a broad range of leisure and developmental activities including art, drama and crafts. - Make informed choices, do things for themselves, try new activities and experience differentenvironments. - Improve their communication skills enabling the children to express their needs and desires, reducing frustration and anxiety. 2. To help reduce these pressures and potential family breakdown - the physical and emotional demands of caring for a disabled child can be very challenging, putting significant strain on family life.
