Geeza Break was set up in 1992 and has been operating its holistic, nurturing, relationship based service across the North East of Glasgow since 1992. This delivers wraparound family support, kinship care and respite provision to children, young people and their families . We support families with children 0-16 years, with multiple services available for families to self refer ore be referred, depending on their needs and circumstances. Our unique respite services include our four hour respite sitting service alongside our short breaks, respite sitting, overnight foster car.
