What is Autism?

Autism is the word used to describe a lifelong difference in a person’s neurology. It’s very difficult to say exactly what ‘it’ is because it can’t be separated from the person.
What we do

We help remove barriers to support individuals with autism and learning difficulties into employment. This new service has been designed to support both the individual, and also the employer.
Child Residential Care

We design individual programmes for each child or young person who stays in one of our residences to ensure their specific needs are met. We offer weekly, termly and 52 week residential placements.
What We Believe

We provide a wide – and ever growing – range of services for autistic children, young people and adults, and those with other examples of neurodiversity.
Our Homes

Creating a 'home from home' environment for autistic children and those with learning difficulties
Trampolining Sessions

Our FREE trampolining lessons are open to children, young people and adults with special needs.
