We transform lives by providing support, guidance and practical advice for the 700,000 autistic adults and children in the UK, as well as their three million family members and carers. Autistic people turn to us at key moments or challenging times in their lives, be it getting a diagnosis, going to school or finding work.

We change attitudes by improving public understanding of autism and the difficulties many autistic people face. We also work closely with businesses, local authorities and government to help them provide more autism-friendly spaces, deliver better services and improve laws.

Why Choose us?

Autism expertise and knowledge

Our highly skilled and innovative teams empower people to maximise their involvement and inclusion in their community.

Person-centred care

We use individual evidence based, outcome focused assessments to make sure our support is designed to enable people to live the life they choose.

Understanding your diagnosis

We support people to understand their diagnosis and how this may impact on their life and the lives of those around them.

We have come a long way but there is still so much to do to increase opportunities, reduce social isolation and build a brighter future for people on the spectrum. With your help, we can make it happen.

You’ll be joining our team, both locally and nationally and we’ll support you every step of the way.
