The Mallard is a safe, purpose-built space where your child’s needs, preferences, and happiness come first. Located in the heart of Springburn, Glasgow, we provide respite short breaks for children and young people (aged 5-21) with additional or complex needs. Our warm, family-focused approach means every stay is carefully planned to be enjoyable, comfortable, and tailored to each child.

Each child has a dedicated key worker who will plan activities around their likes, interests, and goals.
During their stay, children can enjoy:
- Sensory room
