You might have clocked that we recently joined up with Every Disabled Child Matters to urge local authorities to tell us how much money they will be spending on short breaks for families with disabled children in 2010/11.
Since then, we've been in touch with the main charities that work with disabled children, and we're thrilled that so far Scope, Action For Children, Mencap, Sense and Treehouse (the national charity for autism education) have pledged to support the campaign.
We'll be posting up their messages of support on the Respite Campaign page over the next few days, and we'll let you know as other organisations come on board.
If you haven't yet emailed your local authority, now's your chance! It only takes a minute, we promise.
