Peer Support Groups
Our parents / carers and neurodivergent community are always at the heart of what we do. We provide a safe space where you are accepted, understood, and encouraged to share your own lived experiences with peers; supporting one another; pre and post diagnosis.
Each group has informal discussions about whatever is relevant at that time, which could be behaviour concerns; sleep issues; benefit guidance; education support; friendships; sensory advice.
Please come along to any of our drop-in groups for a cuppa and a chat, we will be delighted to meet you!

ADULT Neurodivergent Group
We are a friendship group to enable like-minded people to connect to one another in a safe, accepting and supportive environment.
People can join at any point and there is no pressure to attend every time, just as and when it suits them, but it is essential to book your place at each meetup. Participants shape the group and choose the activities and topics. It’s very informal, relaxed and an opportunity to meet new people. We have a mix of ages, from 18 to 60 years old of men and women.
Participation is free and is aimed at adults with neuro developmental conditions (with or without a diagnosis, those waiting on a diagnosis or suspecting their neurodivergence, who self-identify) with; Autism, ADHD, Dyspraxia, Dyslexia, FAS and many more.
