Join us from 20 – 27 December 2023 or 27 December – 3 January 2024 to celebrate the most wonderful time of year, Revitalise style. Throughout each week we’ll have tons of themed activities, entertainment, crafts, dining and events for you to enjoy. Like all of our breaks, these are fully supported by our expert care teams and accessible for any type of disability.

What a Christmas break means to our guests

Toni came to us in 2020 after her mum passed away. She visited Sandpipers, where our incredible team improved her confidence in a relaxed and welcoming environment.

“This time of year makes you think of family, and the first Christmas without mum would have been to hard to do by myself. Christmas at Sandpipers was magical.”

— Toni, Sandpipers guest

Holiday respite breaks for carers

Respite holidays for carers give both disabled people and those that care for them a chance to switch off. To support carers, we take over the caring responsibility so carers can spend quality time with their disabled loved one. They can also choose to holiday elsewhere, knowing their loved one is enjoying their festive break too.
