Breakaway is a large detached bungalow in Aveley, near Lakeside shopping centre and South Ockendon. Breakaway provides respite for carers by offering short breaks for people under 65 who are disabled or have more complex needs.

This includes learning disabilities, people with challenging behaviour and/or those with physical/sensory impairments. The bungalow has been refurbished to a high standard and is fully accessible for wheelchair users. The service is open 365 days a year and provides support 24 hours a day.

Features of the scheme:

Each person will have their own bedroom when they visit Breakaway. Additional shared facilities include a lounge, kitchen, dining room, laundry, bathroom and spacious communal garden. We have created a relaxing and homely environment to make the people who come to stay at Breakaway feel welcome.
