Space to Gather Online is a free online group for family carers caring for a young person or adult with a learning disability, which may include autism and other disabilities too.
One month we meet on the second Thursday evening, and the following month we meet on the second Sunday.
Grab a cuppa and join us for a chat & catch up. Each month we may have new information that we will share, or you can share your lived experience (if you wish) with other family carers who care for someone with a learning disability which may include autism.
If you would like to know more about a specific topic or would like to know more about something in particular, do email us and we can theme the monthly catch ups.
