Family Autism Support

£10

Could pay for an autistic child to attend a stay and play session. These sessions give children the chance to do what they do best – play.

Is what it costs to run our Information Advice Line for one hour.  Providing and listening ear and vital support to those who are affected by autism.

£20

Could help pay for a family to attend an advice session. These sessions help families that have reached a crisis point and offer a helping hand to build a stronger future.

£25

May give a brother or sister of an autistic child the chance to attend a sibling workshop. Sibling workshops allow children to learn more about autism and provide a great opportunity to share their feelings.

£50

Could provide a 1:1 specialist support session to a family with an autistic child. This would help them develop long term coping strategies, improving their day to day lives.

£100
