Since then, it has grown into a major deliverer of services and support in London and the West Midlands with a turnover of around £2.6m per year. The mission is to support autistic people to live happy and fulfilling lives and change society’s attitude to autism, whilst also providing essential services and enriching opportunities to autistic people.
