About this event

Our Stirling Summer Activity will be a trip to Linlithgow Palace!

For our Summer activity we're going to meet up and walk around Linlithgow Palace! Entry is free.

This will be a safe space, facilitated by autistic volunteers.

Please read our Guidelines & Rules before you come along to any of our SWAN Places groups, to help ensure they are safe, supportive and friendly spaces.

Who is this group for?

SWAN groups are safer spaces for autistic women, cis or trans, and non-binary people over-18 who live, work or study in the local area.

SWAN is inclusive of all autistic women and non-binary people, including those who are exploring whether they are autistic, who self identify as autistic or are clinically diagnosed (private or NHS).

If these descriptions do not match you, we ask that you do not attend our groups unless they are specifically stated to be for non-autistic individuals. If you are a non-autistic person wishing to learn more about autism, visit our website for workshops and training: swanscotland.org/training

Accessibility

We aim to make our groups as accessible as possible - they are run and designed by autisic people, in accessible venues.

If you have any medical conditions which might affect you when you are at a group, please let the facilitator know at the start of the group so they are aware of what to do should anything happen (e.g. epilepsy, diabetes, etc.).

If there is anything we can do to make the experience more accessible for you please do get in touch with us ahead of the meet up:

Frequently asked questions

Where can I read the Rules and Guidelines for the group?

You can read all our all rules and guidelines here: https://swanscotland.org/uploads/files/SWAN_Places_Rules___Guidelines.pdf

Can I bring a carer/friend to the group?

To maintain the group as a space specifically for autistic women and non-binary people over 18, we kindly ask that only those who fit that description attend the meetings. We completely understand, though, if you’d like someone to bring you or pick you up, but we ask if they wait outside the room.

Do I need to book in advance?

We kindly ask that you book in advance before attending the group. This allows us to accurately record attendance, which is essential for our funding and ensures we can keep providing this space. It’s also important for safeguarding reasons so we can ensure a safe environment for everyone attending.

Is the group strictly for over 18s only?

Yes, the group is strictly for people aged 18 and over. We aim to create a space that is supportive and appropriate for adults, so participants must be at least 18 years old to attend.
