There are more than half a million people in the UK living with autism, an invisible, misunderstood and lonely disability. 60,000 live in the West Midlands. 

We are the leading charity in the West Midlands for people affected by autism. We exist to enable all people with autism, and those who love and care for them to lead fulfilling and rewarding lives. 
Our passionate, expert staff and volunteers work across all age groups and abilities, providing direct support to people affected by autism. 

What do we do?

• Support people with autism to live as independently as possible, in residential care, or in their own or the family home

• Provide activities and events and support for families, and an information helpline

• Help people with autism to find and keep a job

• Offer training for parents of children with autism, and the professionals who help them

….and much more!

Our vision is a world where all people on the autism spectrum have the specialist care and support they need to lead fulfilling and rewarding lives.
