Autism East Midlands
We’ve been supporting autistic people and their families since 1968. Formed by a small group of parents in Nottingham, our charity has steadily grown.
We now provide support to families across the region from Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire through to Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, and Northamptonshire.
Our support is led by our service users. We strongly believe that each person we support should feel heard, valued, in control, independent, respected, and included.
Our Vision:
A world which recognises, understands and values autistic people, and where they and their families receive the services and support they need throughout their lives.
Our Mission:
To advocate, provide and develop high-quality services, information, and support, in partnership with others, for all those whose lives are affected by autism. To recognise and respond to the needs of the individual, enabling autistic people to live their lives with dignity, choice and independence. Our well-trained staff offer a wide range of services to help individuals to live their lives the way they want.
