Making life better for young people in and around care

Break works across East Anglia making life better for young people on the edge of care, in care and leaving care.

We give children, young people and families the time and support they need to achieve their full potential.

Whether that’s through therapeutic services, respite breaks, providing a resilient home or support with parenting, we are committed to supporting them through whatever life has in store.

A safari is coming to Norwich and Norfolk in 2025!
