Meridian- short breaks service

Meridian is one of the Together Trust’s short breaks services. We are a leading disability charity in the North West. 

The whole family can rest and recharge with our short breaks. Meridian gives children and young people a wonderful opportunity to make friends, have fun and experience new things. We’ve put a lot of love into designing our home to create warm, friendly and nurturing spaces for the young people we support. It really is a home from home.

We’ve got sensory rooms, low stimulus spaces and an outdoor play area. Not to mention our lovely communal spaces. With space for up to five children each night, we offer personalised care and plenty of opportunities for your child to learn, socialise and play.

 Meridian offers: 

  • Planned short breaks for children and young people who have autism spectrum conditions (ASC)
  • Increased learning, social integration and recreational opportunities
  • Care from a team of dedicated individuals experienced and trained in understanding the needs of children and young people with autism
  • Opportunities for a range of fun activities and community events
  • A partnership working approach with parents/carers to provide continuity of approach and care
  • A person-centred service 
  • A truly friendly and welcoming environment
  • Direct payment uptake. The Together Trust is committed that disabled children, young people and their families have choice about their care
