Take a Break


TAKE A BREAK FROM CARING.

We're a charity transforming vacant hotel rooms into vital breaks for full-time
unpaid carers.




CHANGE HAPPENS OVERNIGHT

We know how challenging it can be to care for someone. A few days away with a
partner or a friend can work wonders. It may seem like a small thing but it can
make a huge difference.

Read a book, go for a walk, or simply catch up on some sleep. Whatever you
choose to do, you’ll return home with a whole new outlook on things, refreshed
and rejuvenated.

say their break improved their wellbeing

 * “Going away has really boosted my energy and mental health. I returned to
   another crisis but I was able to hit the ground running and pick up my
   responsibilities with cheerfulness.”
   
   Collen, who stayed at St Giles Hotel

 * “THANK YOU SO MUCH. I can't tell you how much I needed this. You're
   amazing... We could never have done this without you. Honestly, I'm crying.
   You are just what we needed.”
   
   Michaela, who stayed at Gonville Hotel

 * “It had been over a year since I had a day to myself to just think and
   breathe. It was like being in another world, being able to just sleep and eat
   for one day in peace.”
   
   Kayley, who stayed at Village Hotel Coventry

 * “This break taught me that I need to take more care of myself so I can take
   better care of them.”
   
   Patricia, who stayed at Dunston Hall Hotel

 * “It was like stepping into another world for a brief moment.”
   
   Hayleigh, who stayed at DoubleTree by Hilton Bath

 * “The break was so beneficial to me, as I struggle with my mental health as a
   carer because my partner became disabled suddenly and unexpectedly. Having
   time for myself was very precious and helped me to feel valued.”
   
   Julie,  who stayed at Village Hotel Maidstone




OUR OFFER 

Hundreds of hotels nationwide donate room nights to our charity every day out of
their excess capacity. Through Carefree you can access a 1-2 night hotel stay
with a companion, at a time and place that works for you. 


WHO CAN GET A BREAK?

To be eligible you need to be over 18 years of age and provide more than 30
hours of unpaid care per week.


WHAT ARE THE COSTS? 

We charge a £33 admin fee per break to help us run our charity. You’re also
responsible for paying for your travel and other expenses. 


WHO CAN I GO WITH?

Most hotels offer double or twin rooms with breakfast included. You can take
someone with you, but this should not be your cared-for person so that you can
truly get a break away from caring. 


GET REGISTERED WITH CAREFREE TODAY.

Your well-deserved break is waiting just around the corner.
