Smilers and Youth for ages 8-18 meets every other Saturday morning.
This week will be a Yoga session with Debs.
You can book onto the session here– there is the option to donate when booking but absolutely no pressure to do so.
Siblings are very welcome.
Bookings will close at 4pm on Friday and please remember to cancel your place if you can no longer attend. Enjoy!
Many of our regular families had raised concerns with us that once their young person turns 18, and although here at the Autism Hub we have our amazing partners – Autism in Mind (AIM) who offer support to autistic adults, many families have shared their worry that ultimately and technically the support for the family themselves stops.
Families have shared with us that they get so much from our services, especially our monthly peer support groups (Cuppa & Cakes) calling it their ‘safe space’. We pride ourselves on listening to feedback, adapting, and expanding where we can on our offer here at the Autism Hub.
With that in mind we are thrilled to share that we have expanded our monthly cuppa and cake groups to include a NEW monthly group for families with autistic young adults 18+
Booking is essential.
To book a place:
Call 0191 816 0550
Email autismhub@ttht.co.uk
Or book via our website ttht.co.uk/autism-hub-events/
**Please note this group is for parent/carers only not the young adult.
For support for autistic adults please follow the link to AIMs offer in South Tyneside https://autisminmind.com/aim-south-tyneside
