Autism Alliance Events

 

 

Not only are we constantly working to raise awareness about autism in as many places as we can (both virtually and through community drop-ins), we also facilitate an Autism Alliance, where members of the autistic community, their families, friends and carers, along with professionals, can come together, share their experiences of autism and feed into the development of autism services in Derby City and Derbyshire County.

We are currently hosting monthly peer support sessions for autistic adults and parents/carers. Professionals are welcome to join but please note that this is intended as a space for the autistic community to share their experiences. Send us an email to be put onto the Autism Alliance mailing list if you wish to get involved.

These are all held online via Microsoft Teams. Please contact us to sign up to the Autism Alliance. You will then receive a link before each session. Click on our Drop- ins page for face to face events.

“I enjoyed that there was the opportunity for everyone who wanted to, to share. The comfort breaks. Meeting other autistic adults. I like the way it is structured. It gives people the opportunity to join in and have a turn, which might not happen if there weren’t some order to it. I liked that the lady hosting/leading was autistic.”
