Being an Autistic parent can raise unique challenges that historically have been poorly supported. Autistic Parents UK (APUK) is an Autistic-led Charity (CIO) and is committed to supporting Autistic parents in a number of ways:

  • regular blog articles, from Autistic parents sharing lived experience
  • monthly webinars and live Q&A sessions with well-known Autistic Advocates
  • free-to-access training for autistic parents (such as perinatal education and approaches to parenthood workshops)
  • training and supervision for professionals
  • monthly giveaways to increase accessibility to literature and support relevant to Autistic parents
  • online peer support groups (larger and smaller groups)
  • volunteer-led one to one peer support sessions
  • local peer support groups

We are committed to working reflectively and flexibly to improve our support offering and have many plans for future development.
