St Quintin Centre for Disabled Children & Young People provide a variety of short breaks for disabled children who live in Kensington & Chelsea. These short breaks can be accessed through a social worker or a parent self referral. A short break can be as little as a few hours home care, school holiday care, Saturdays and after school. We aim to provide activities and opportunities for all the children we support giving them chances to experience life as their siblings and peers. We encourage all parents and children to visit the site at St Quintin North, talk to the staff and find out about the core offer open to all families. Volunteers may be accepted to work with the service users. We provide services for any child/young person who lives in the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea.
