Autism Guernsey is dedicated to enriching the lives of people with autism and their families.
Autism Guernsey is an independent charity set up in 2012 to assist and support people on the autism spectrum in Guernsey.
Our aim is to ensure those with autism are able to lead full, positive and inclusive lives and enjoy a reasonable degree of independence.
We seek to share our knowledge and expertise with parents, carers and other professionals in order to support the development of skills and strategies needed to provide the best care and support for people with autism. We have pioneered a number of services, events and clubs for both adults and children.
As a registered Guernsey charity, Autism Guernsey receives no statutory financial backing, and all funds raised go towards work carried out in Guernsey. We rely on support from the island’s community to continue our work.
We are unable to provide direct support and help to everyone who has an ASD in Guernsey. We will try to help where we can and direct to other services when appropriate.
Our Patron is Lady Kathryn Corder
