Short breaks with free accommodation

We have partnered with Carefree, a charity working with hotels, transforming their vacant rooms into vital breaks for unpaid carers.

As partners we can refer carers registered with us, for a break. 

How does it work 

Breaks are usually for three nights and include free accommodation and breakfast for you and a companion in a twin or double room. 

Am I eligible? 

To qualify for a break, you must be: 

  • Aged 18 or over 
  • A full-time unpaid carer 
  • Able to arrange interim care 
  • Able to pay for extras (admin fee of £25, transport, food, travel insurance if needed etc.) 

Breaks are for you the carer, and you are welcome to take a companion, who isn’t the person that you care for. 

Contact us using the details below if you are interested in knowing more, and we can refer you to Carefree who will let you know how to book.
