Personal Care ArrangementsIf your child will need help with personal care during the session, a carer who can provide this needs to be in place prior to the session, as unfortunately, Mako Create staff cannot provide personal care. If you receive funding for personal care, then you will need to make arrangements for your carer to attend the session with your child. If you receive personal care through a Halton Borough Council care package, then you need to make arrangements with the council as soon as possible, for a carer to attend the session for your child. If you have no care in place, but your child needs help with personal care, please let us know so that we can refer you to the relevant council team. If your child attends the session needing personal care, but arrives without provision in place, regretfully they will be turned away. Participants may be permitted to be joined by a sibling who does not meet our eligibility criteria, but only if the sibling’s presence will be of benefit to the young person and if there is adequate space on the course. Due to our provision agreement with Halton Borough Council, we must reserve the right to cancel sibling places to accommodate other young people with disabilities and/or additional needs. We will require a phone call with you to discuss your circumstances if you would like to enrol a non-eligible sibling onto a session. **Tickets are non-transferable - please ensure the name of the participant you sign up matches the young person who arrives at our session. Each young person must have their own ticket.**
