Take A Break – Family Fund

Take a Break is Scotland’s short breaks Scheme to support the carers of disabled children, young people and their families.

It aims to provide families with the choice and opportunity to access a single or ongoing break from caring.

Take a Break grants enable families caring for a disabled or seriously ill child or young person to have the opportunity to choose how they would like to take a break, with a view to improving the quality of life, health and well-being of the whole family.

East Dunbartonshire – Supporting Families

Who are the Supporting Families Team and what do they do?

We are a small team based within the Education Early Years’ Service. Our role is to support all families who have children 0-10 years with any parenting queries, tips or strategies – no issue is too big or small.

Why do families access support through the team?

Most parents who access the service have children between 3 and 10 years old. For the majority of time parenting is rewarding but parents tell us sometimes it can be stressful. The Supporting Families Team offers free, informal, confidential support for every parent/carer either on a 1:1 basis or through a parenting group. Families do not need to be involved with any other services.

Parents can self-refer by emailing:Β parenting@eastdunbarton.gov.uk

Please Note:

If you are a resident of another Local Authority and your child attends an East Dunbartonshire school/nursery you can join a Triple P group (Day or Evening) and for 1:1 support you would access this from the Local Authority you live in.

Family Learning

East Dunbartonshire Council acknowledges the positive contribution parent/carers and families make to children’s learning. Family Learning supports parental participation and engagement in children’s learning at home, school and in their communities. It is crucial to raising attainment. It allows parents and families to become equal partners in their children’s learning

Benefits to participating in Family Learning experiences:

  • New skills
  • Increased confidence
  • Improved communication
  • Changed behaviours
  • Changed relationships within your community and family
