The Autism Group offers free Parent Support and Social groups, parent training sessions and a home visit service for residents in the Boroughs of Windsor and Maidenhead, Slough and Bracknell. These services are offered to parents of children and young people of any age who either have a diagnosis of an autism spectrum condition or are on the diagnosis pathway awaiting assessment
Parent Support and Social Groups
Pop in for coffee and a chat with other parents at one of our Parent Support Groups run alongside our Pokemon Special Interest Group activities on Saturday afternoons in the Maidenhead area. Parent groups are led by autism trained team members who also have young people of their own who are on the spectrum. You can drop in to one of our parent support sessions even if you don’t have children attending one of our activity clubs. If you are dropping someone off then stay for a chat or enjoy a bit of free time. You can enjoy walking in the grounds at Berkshire College of Agriculture or shop in the nearby centre of Maidenhead.
Or join us at one of our morning or evening social groups at the Craufurd Arms, Maidenhead. See upcoming events for details of the next group.
