Social group for adults with autism

[sheilarose]

Are there any social groups for adults with autism in this area? And if not, would anyone be interested in setting one up? 

[EDmummy]

I’d be interested to know too!

The National Autistic Society UK don't appear to have a Southwark branch, but they offer help if you wish to start your own local one:

Join one of our online branches and get to know fellow autistic people with a shared interest, identity or experience.

Can't find a branch that's right for you? Why not start up your own? Please email [email protected] for more information.

All of our branches' events and activities are individually risk assessed.  Please note that compliance with the rules associated with each of these is every attendee's responsibility.

We’re looking for a group for a young adult with high functioning autism, something where they can meet local people
