PentaHact and the Asian Respite Service in Barnet

PentaHact is an innovative and creative provider of services to people with learning disabilities, autism and/or mental health problems. Our mission is ‘to provide person-centred support enabling people to make the most of opportunities in their community’.

PentaHact is a regionally focused organisation. We provide services to over 500 people in the London Boroughs of Barnet, Brent, Waltham Forest, Enfield and Haringey and across Hertfordshire, Essex, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire.

The Asian Respite Service, managed by PentaHact is a new service being developed after a need was identified by Asian Carers in Barnet. The Learning Disability Development Fund is funding this service for a year. The respite service will offer a tailor made service to each service user, will offer culturally sensitive support to individuals, offer support in their home environment and in the community.
PentaHact has been working closely with Barnet Mencap and Barnet’s Learning Disability Social Work Team to set up this service. The service operates from PentaHact’s Head Office in Finchley and is managed by Stephanie White.
