Branch Out Holidays

Supported holidays for adults with learning disabilities

Who are we?

We are a specialist provider of all inclusive holidays for adults with mild to moderate learning disabilities who would like to be part of a small group spending time away together. We also run a Day Service that operates throughout the year. We have over forty years experience of working with people with learning disabilities.

Who are they for?

Our holidays are suitable for people who are fairly independent, who require some support in daily living but do not need personal care. In some cases extra support can be provided e.g. one to one, in which case an additional charge will be levied.

During the holidays the experienced and caring staff are on hand at all times to provide help, advise and support. Staffing is normally based on a ratio of two to eight but can be flexible due to individual needs.

Type of holidays

We only run a few holidays a year but they are all unique and we endeavour to cater for personal interests. Each holiday location offers a variety of activities. Living and communication skills play a big part during the holidays and there are plenty of opportunities to put these skills into practise.

Specialist holidays can be arranged if requested for an individual or a group.

Holiday venues are chosen in superb locations whether in town, country or coast.

Accommodation is carefully chosen and depending on the sort of holiday, ranges through hostels, hotels, windmills, farmhouses, holiday homes and boats.  The holidays have a basic itinerary to suit the locality. Group preferences during the holiday are accommodated.

All holidays start from a pre arranged meeting point in Suffolk. In some cases it may be possible to pick people up en route or meet at the venue.

What is included in the price?

Cost of holiday includes: Return transport from Suffolk to venue, accommodation, full board (Breakfast, lunch and dinner), including one non-alcoholic drink per meal time. Transport during the day, excursions and most entrance fees. Not included are souvenirs, gifts, postcards other personal items and travel insurance.

Please note

Our holidays have become very popular and get filled up very quickly so please book early to avoid disappointment.
