Who are we?

Welcome to the new blog for Silverton Short Breaks. We are an Action for Children respite project based in Hamilton Scotland. We provide overnight respite to young people with additional needs. We are a purpose built unit with six themed rooms as well as a play room, a sensory room and a conservatory that is soon to become our new reading/computer room. We have also recently redeveloped our garden to include a sandpit with water feature, a 'Hobbit' style house, a covered stage area and raised flower beds. Making the garden an even more accessible and fun area for all of our guests. 
Our staff are fully trained and have many years experience of working in this field.
In addition to overnight respite we also provide an outreach program where the young people have a chance to experience a variety of activities outwith the project. 
We also run a number of clubs at the weekend at various venues across South Lanarkshire.
Through this blog we will keep you updated on what is happening at Silverton over the coming months. We'll also include  lots of photos of events and activities.
Be sure to check in as often as you can!
