Social Support Groups
Many Autistic adults find themselves socially isolated. We create opportunities to meet new people, make friends and learn new skills.
Our aim for this group is to make a real and positive difference to the lives of the people we support by providing person centred community activities. We believe that the people using our services should be supported to take charge of their lives and to move forward on their life journey reaching their personal goals. Our groups are small and personal, with maximum numbers set per session, tailored to meet individual needs and planned well in advance. AM HQ provide full support where it is actually needed.
Autistic adults make all of the decisions about what the group does and the activities delivered.

Short Breaks
We provide regular short breaks throughout the year in this country and abroad.
Every autistic adult and every family is unique. Everyone has their own idea of what makes a good break. So, it is important that families and autistic people lead the decision about what kind of break to take. It should be their choice. A good break from day to day stresses and routines benefits everyone. Regular breaks are a priority for most people. Breaks are just as important for people who need support and their families. Good short breaks may help prevent families from reaching crisis point.
We provide regular short breaks throughout the year in this country and abroad. People who come on our short breaks come to our social groups first, so we can get to know them, and they get to know us. This helps us plan together some unique and exciting breaks we know everyone will enjoy and benefit from. Lots of families who access these breaks have told us that they like us to provide a yearly schedule of breaks so they can plan their own respite time well in advance, so our breaks for the following year come out in September.
