Help is available from Active Respite for families in Nottinghamshire and Nottingham City to access activities in their local area.<\/p>\n
Active Respite funds children with identified needs in the family (such as financial, mental health, safeguarding) to attend activities they are passionate for.<\/p>\n
A spokesperson said: \u201cWe want children to have equal opportunity to get active, and also for carers to have some time to themselves whilst the children are active!<\/p>\n
\u201cWe cover a range of activities from sport to music to art. We even support children financially to attend holiday clubs during half-terms if their usual activity isn\\’t available, or they have a higher threshold of need.<\/p>\n
\u201cAll we ask is that the child is aged between 5 and 11, live in Nottingham\/Nottinghamshire, and have an identified need by a professional such as a support worker, SENCO at school, or GP.\u201d<\/p>\n
