The challenges that people face
New Warlands Farm will provide scores of opportunities for autistic and neurodivergent people - find out more about why this is a key issue.
About Growing Futures
Since 2010, the North East Autism Society has been developing New Warlands Farm into a place where autistic people can thrive.
In 2023, we secured planning permission to grow the farm into something special; a visitor centre, cider press, workshop and café – which will support autistic and neurodivergent people directly by offering work placements and training opportunities.
In 2025, our 45th anniversary year, we are launching our Growing Futures appeal to help make our most ambitious project into a reality and transform the lives of autistic and neurodivergent people in our region.
Help us make a difference
Our £4.4 million vision for New Warlands Farm is the charity’s most ambitious project yet. Please back us to make a lasting impact on the lives of autistic and neurodivergent people in the North East.
