A scheme to give disabled children support to attend out-of-school clubs could be scaled back as demand grows too high.
Medway Council’s cabinet is to consider changing its eligibility criteria for the short breaks grant to save £200,000.
The scheme is intended to help children and young people with disabilities develop new relationships, skills, and confidence through activities such as playing sport, attending after-school clubs, or spending a few days away from home.
