The Wood View
Short Break Service is a registered Children’s Home, providing high standards of care and support to children from Plymouth and beyond. Many of the children who come to Wood View have complex care needs and we support them to enjoy the company of their peers and develop their social skills in a safe environment.
Wood View accommodates children between the ages of 3 – 18, offering overnight accommodation for up to 6 children and young people at one time. We also provide day care support for children as part of a transitional programme.
